I also thought it would be good for cleaning up welds before painting but I don't think it would manage this either.
I have one , and like it for what it is. Quick and dirty for little spots, and maybe a quick blast before welding. I run 165 psi line pressure . Maybe it helps. also, the size media you use will make a big difference.. The finer stuff, while less aggressive, seems to flow through the smaller nozzles easier .
I also have been using a modified HF pressure pot, with a better hose, and nozzle set up. Works pretty good for what it is .
