Does anyone know where i would be able to buy large bags of baking soda? I'm tempted to blast my mini myself and i've heard lots of good stuff about blasting with baking soda. Sadly though the only places when conducting a google search that sell it seem to be in america. Anyone had any luck sourcing some over here?

what you need to understand is that blasting soda isn't a powder like the baking soda you get in shops for cooking with, its small granules., so cooking stuff wont do it properly

Aye, the stuff i seem to need is made by an american company called Armex but searching for that in the uk is a pain as there is a company with the same name that is a manufacture of archery equipment.

Cheers for that link Scallywag630, i'll send them a quick email.
