I use this and it does good. About 2 feet long. Not a real powerful blast, but it's good enough and it won't strip off the car paint.

PLUG
(not bought from Amazon. Bought from Rutland Tool that MSC ruined)
END OF PLUG
Question: I thinking about making a small version of this for cleaning paint guns and small parts. Worth doing or have you done this route before?
I once had this piece of hose that could plug into a spray can top, the other end was a small brush. Was a idea that depends on the weak pressure from
a spray can. Looking for something small that can jet solvent into spray gun tip holes (smaller than most people's smallest drill bit).
I got this idea watching how a Abrams tank is rebuilt. They have not made a new one since 1992 or something like that. The entire body that has been stripped
is hoisted into a 30 foot tall chamber and with doors closed the thing is rotated while being shot with stainless steel media. Comes out looking new after 30mins.
A company like Sata will void a warranty if their gun is soaked for a length of time (seals damaged). Would be nice to hang it in a chamber and just spray it clean.
Been to a few autobody shops that let me have a tour. Was not impressed with what they use.
