OK, you have a five or six hp machine. If you are doing grafiti or only have five or six square feet total, go for it. Contrary to what you may think, underpowered machines will do more damage to the brick wall from joint erosion than a high capacity machine. Go rent a 250-375 cfm compressor and 600 pound blast pot and do the job right. Figure a minimum of $2.00 per square foot (because of the height). If you or the owner have lead concerns and/or need containment, you might need as much as $10.00 per foot. I am retired after 30 years in the business. I used 750 cfm and would get 1000+ square feet per hour working on the ground with no containment. I saw a lot of my competitors come and go because they never could understand that bigger is better.
