The compressor absolutely needs to be 220vac, and the bigger the tank the better.
Then you'll need a good water seperator/filter/regulator.
I usually blast at around 60psi, and just a quick back and forth dusting is all your need. If you over blast, it'll come out blotchy.
As far as shaking the cabinet to get the blast media down... never had to do that. I keep the hopper pretty full.
What do you use to plug the internal areas as to not blast them ?....
