Hi everyone, I’m looking for a good source to buy around 100 pounds of bulk Baking Soda nearest to Waukegan, IL Zip Code 60083. I’m willing to travel a bit North up into Wisconsin as well. I'm sure there's a much better deal out there then Sam's Club at $12.00 for a 13 pound box? Thanks in advance. Mike

Thanks to all for the replies.

Hi gang, I’ve been hanging out just reading and lurking around. Thanks to everyone for sharing there hard earned experiences. You all do some pretty cool stuff. So now I have my home project. I have a standard 16’X7’ raised panel garage door. I do believe it to be galvanized steel, and the paint is peeling off. I tried my pressure washer, and I can get it down to bare metal, but it was VERY slow process. So I’m looking at adding a sandblasting adapter to my pressure washer. I have a Colman with a 5.5Hp Honda engine. The pump is rated at 2,300 PSI @ 2.3 GPM. I’ve found a kit made by a company called Arrowline, my questions are. #1. What would be a good media to use? My first guess would be soda, or walnut shells? #2. They offer Carbide tip in the below sizes. I’m sure that the size has a bearing on type of media, PSI and GPM. So what would be the best combination for my washer and job at hand? Brass Sandblaster Kit 3.5 Orifice 1.2mm Brass Sandblaster Kit 4.5 Orifice 1.3mm Brass Sandblaster Kit 5.5 Orifice 1.4mm Brass Sandblaster Kit 6.0 Orifice 1.5mm Thank in advance to all. Mike

Beth, Sorry for posting in the wrong section. Thinking back now, I should have posted in DYI, as I am a home owner. Thank you for the health warnings, but I was already aware of the need for hooded ventilation when working with silica. So this discussion brings more questions. I would still like to use my pressure wash for wet sandblasting. With that said. #3. At 2,300 PSI will Baking Soda be aggressive enough to get me down to bare metal? #4. If using Baking Soda, will the 3.5 orifice still be the correct choice? #5. What are your thoughts, and health issues, concerns in using “Black Beauty” (Two parts glass bead to one part aluminum oxide.)? #6. If I go with the Black Beauty, will the 3.5 orifice still be the correct choice? #7. I’m on the IL/WI state line (60083 zip code) any direction as to a supplier for my media needs? Thanks again for the quick response. Mike
