Due to a small air tank, I have been using a wire brush to remove most of the paint from my B. I sand blast the area's I can not get with the brush. This works fine on the smaller parts, but now I am getting ready to do the frame. would an "industrial" compresser work? The kind to run jack hammers?

Check out www.Eatoncompressor.com These guys built and sell direct. They use a true H.P. motor[a 5H.P. is a true 5H.P. not a 1.5h.p. running at a high rpm] not like most air compressor companies sell. They use cast iron pumps, which are heavy. I bought a 5h.p. single stage and this is more compressor that I ever had with my old 5h.p.[which was a brand name]. They will help you with your needs and they are priced right!!

Yes, an industrial sandblaster that runs jackhammers will work, were you planning to rent one? If so, they can tell you if it will work. From what I understand a 5 hp, 2 stage compressor will run a sandblaster. I'm putting together a Quincy 325 that I ground the crank and replaced the bearings, rings, and did a valve job, because I want to use it for sandblasting. I understand it is the smallest I would want to use.

I have a 5 hp 2 stage compressor, and in order for it to keep up, I had to get a 3/32 tip.. The 1/8 was too big, then there is the problem of moisure buildup. If you are doing just small areas, moisture may not be a concern.
