I have one of these. It works when it feels like it. Everything must be just right. The orange hoses kink very easily and that causes issues so a better suction hose would help. Be prepared to get wet and full of sand as in most cases when blasting into corners it comes right back at you.
efficient sandblasting requires high CFM not PSI. Plus with that short of the nozzle the send won't accelerate to max velocity that would be supported by the 1500+ PSI that the pressure washer is capable of. Average "small" sand blaster runs at around 11 cfm at 90 psi. 1 cfm is about 7 gpm ; so to have "equivalent" power at say 2000 psi you need 3.5gpm pressure washer and then 95% of it would be wasted due to short nozzle So you really need like 70gpm 2000 psi pressure washer to equate a small/medium size blasting cabinet.
I'm researching these with the intention to purchase one, I noticed this other one has 2 tubes going into the sand which may help the air flow into the bucket end, plus the sand type. Link to the video th-cam.com/video/DVe0vBAYubM/w-d-xo.html

Yea I’m gonna do some research and see if there a better one out there.
Same problems it wouldn't do crap
Yea I’ve tried several ways still doesn’t work well
Yu using the wrong sand
Possibly I’m gonna try other types next
At least 3000 psi but more importantly 4 gpm. Plus a Decent nozzle not ebay cheapie
