(Q) Why use bicarbonate soda media?
(A) Soda will not harm glass, plastics, fiberglass or chrome surfaces. It's used to remove paint coatings from the vehicle surface without etching the surface or warping the metal like more aggressive media would. It's the best way to strip fiberglass Corvettes, boats or aftermarket hoods. Also used to remove paint from urethane and SMC-type bumper fascias.

(Q) Can this unit be used with more aggressive media?
(A) Yes, this unit can be converted to blast standard abrasive medias such as crushed glass, aluminum oxide, etc. by using the abrasive kit included.

Bicarbonate soda blasting is much safer than traditional abrasives, and more gentle to the metal or substrate you're blasting. However, you must still protect yourself from the dust and, more importantly, the particles of paint, corrosion or scale that become airborne during the blasting operation.

Use a properly fitted dust mask or respirator, safety glass or safety shield, plus heavy gloves, long pants and a long-sleeve shirt to protect exposed skin. Use our 50097 Soda-Blasting Protection Kit for complete protection.

Do not aim the nozzle anywhere other than the substrate you are blasting.

Make sure you disconnect the air line and allow the tank to bleed pressure before opening the fill cap.

Check the condition of the nozzle after every hour of blasting and replace once wear is visible or the blast stream becomes ineffective.

Before each use, inspect the tank for any signs of corrosion. Make sure the rubber hoses are not dry-rotted, cracked, split or show any other signs of wear or abrasion from use or storage. Do not use the unit until damage components are repaired. Call Eastwood at 800-544-5118 for replacement components.

Make sure the deadman valve is operating properly by depressing the valve lever and releasing; it must close over the nozzle under its own spring pressure. If not, do not use the deadman valve until the spring or obstruction is repaired.

Only use fresh Eastwood-brand Bicarbonate Soda Media to assure trouble-free blasting and quick paint removal.

1-year mfr's. warranty against defects.

Designed, engineered and tested to Eastwood's specifications.

The unit took about 20 minutes to unpack assemble. A lot of the subassemblies were already put together, which saved some time. I was up and running right away, and it did a nice job right out of the box. The only complaint is that the accessories that come with the kit aren't documented at all, so switching from soda to other media will be a guessing game.

I am satisfied with the Soda Blaster. It is a decent starter kit. It would help to have a compressor that can keep up with the workload. The Blaster actually comes as an abrasive unit, Eastwood included a converter valve to use as a Soda Blaster. The soda converter must be switched back to the original valve to use abrasives, kind of a hassle but you do have the option. I say" BUY".

This is a well made great quality product. I've used an abrasive blaster for years of similar design. This unit is much higher quality than what I'm used to using. However, I was somewhat disappointed with the capability of the soda to remove paint. I used the product that is rated to be most aggressive in removing paint, I believe it has an XL designation and is supposed to contain the most abrassive soda material. I used the product on a steering column to remove paint from the steering column on my 55 Chevy. It was painstakingly slow in removing paint. Where it did remove the paint, the metal was completely undamaged with no marks on the clean metal, which was great. I finally resorted to using my abrassive blaster using aluminunm oxide to remove most of the paint.

I am a novice, corrently restoring a 29 ford. I tried the sodablaster, and after watching the video, did very well. Seeing it in use, even got the wife invloved, and now she uses it to help. WARNING.. It is addictive, and you will find that you will be blasting old tools, lawn furniture, etc.
