Clemco is a reputable US manufacturer of sand blasting equipment. They sell a wetblast attachment which is very simple. At the business end, a ring is clamped around the blast gun nozzle. This ring has six 3/32" holes for water streams that are aimed down into the sand/air stream so the water becomes entrained.
To use it, you attach the back end of the wetblast attachment to a garden hose and turn the garden hose on full. There is a valve on the wetblast hose that the operator can turn on or off.
Clemco claims an 80% reduction in airborn dust. Of course, you do have to spray your part after it dries or it will very quickly rust.
