That sounds like really bad performance.  What kind of blaster do you have?

I blasted a friend's of mine's '67 Datsun roadster's doors, hood,
front fenders and rear trunk to bare metal in about an hour, using
Kleen Blast 30-60 and ~90 psi

And I'm nowhere near wearing out the tip, even after all the blasting
I did on the barndoor.  I've probably moved 1000 pounds or more thru it
so far.
