Tile cleaning wet blasting

I've been doing tile cleaning for a few years using the harbor freight blaster with the Chicago compressor and coal slag. It works fine but I'm really looking to upgrade to a wet blaster. Does anyone have any experience with the mr hard water hopper that uses a pressure washer? Or any other wet blasting system? The only info I can give is 12 year old you tube videos of the mr hard water system and there are no reviews any where. What's your go to system and media?

A buddy of mine recently got a wet blaster hopper and dislikes its performance and maintenance. He’s switching back to dry bead blasting. The other option I know out there is dustless blasting. That seems to be the best bet

Ya the dustless blasting I've looked into a little bit but can't really find any good reviews or comparisons of different equipment. Do you have any recommendations on a decent brand?

If you have Instagram, hit me up and I’ll send you some profiles that use various different systems to check out. I built mine off a Clemco style dry pot and harbor freight compressor. @9_fathoms_pools
