You need a mid-size compressor (90-100 PSI, 10-60 HP depending on area to be blasted), suitable hoses, pressurized reservoir with opening to load blasting media and discharge pipe outlet, angular (fractured) steel shot, nozzle 3/8"-1/2" of inside diameter (ceramic or tungsten carbide preferred but hardened steel also possible), operator (either in cabinet with gloves or covered with rubber or rawhide apron and gloves and suitable face shield). Look for shot blasting equipment in your preferred search engine for pictures of system.
