I was wondering could i use soda in my sand blasting cabinet instead of the glass or is the soda blasting gun etc different

Thanks

I can't say for sure, but I'd say you'd be fine. The guns all do the same job, it s just a matter of how well they do it.

I think from what's been said before the soda blasting needs around 100 psi constantly to work best so it's a matter of if your compresser can handle it as well .

Isn't soda the blasting media that negatively charges the body and won't let paint stick?
(or something like that?)

120 psi is needed for soda blasting.

No paint adhesion problems with the 2 cars I am working on, that were both soda blasted.

I think ONE person had issues somewhere in the world, so everyone has jumped on the anti bandwagon.

I thought I heard somewhere along the line that it is alot easier to clog up. Is that true or is it just another "anti soda blasting" band wagon again?

When I had my wheels soda blasted, I asked the guys about this. They said it was possible, however due to the soda attracting moisture (same property as brake fluid), the blaster would quickly clog up and make it very difficult to work with.

The way they get around this is that they have a huge a/c unit hooked up to their rig that removes all the moisture from the blasting unit. I hope this makes sense.

same things are used in spray shops. had one where i used to work, painter called it a fridge, basically it just cooled the hair and made the moisture in the air collect there instead of going through the lines. this was furniture polish e.t.c but im assuming its the same concept.
