I must have missed this post, ... makes me laugh when I recall my own attempt with a sand-blaster and my little 5hp compressor, how very frustrating to not have the CFM!!!
Used a friend's diesel compressor/trailer with full power-vented suit, mucho better.

I assume this would be the aggresive application of #1 or #2 silica from a high pressure industrial type sandblaster at air pressures exceeding the 100psi of my 5 HP home garage compressor, which actually only puts out this pressure for 30 seconds or so. It requires a recovery time of about 2 minutes to bring it back up from 80lbs after the 45 seconds of blasting each wheel.
