Will It Separate? The Dustopper vs All-Purpose Sand

Will It Separate? We will be testing the Dustopper against different materials and showcasing them for you to see the results! Up first: all-purpose sand. We started with a clean vacuum and filter and let the Dustopper do it’s thing! You can see the sand (about 25 lbs. worth) collect in the bucket. All that is leftover in the vacuum and on the filter is an extremely fine powder. Want to stop that last bit of powder? Use a pre-filter or a HEPA filter vacuum bag to protect your vacuum’s filter against that last layer of ultra-fine dust. The bag rarely needs to be changed and you can always simply knock of the pre-filter and keep working. Do you have an idea of what we should try next? Send us a DM or comment below. Keep making that dust!
