About sanding sealer: Sanding sealer is traditionally some sort of lacquer-like paint that has a lot of filler in it (e.g. talc). It's meant for filling wood grain before painting. Recently I bought

Also, certain paints need to be thinned (or have their brushes cleaned) with xylene instead of normal paint thinner. For example: Hammerite or Zero-Rust (both great paints, BTW). Doug _______________

You need to have a real pressure-pot sandblaster, not a siphon type, and you have to buy the retrofit kit (some special valves) that is on sale these days for $109 or so. Go check out www.eastwood.co
