    Since you have the monster compressor in the garage you might try a
    portable air pressure tank. I see them on Harbor Freight, 5 gallon
     AT 20.00 and 10 gallon  AT 30.00. They will carry 125 psi which may give
    you a few minutes of blasting, then it's back to the garage to
    refill it. 

    (Cfm is cubic feet per minute, a measure of the quantify of
    compressed air the machine is able to produce. My monster compressor
    produces 175 cfm; but it's run by a three cylinder diesel engine and
    is the kind you see out on the street where guys are working with
    jack hammers!)
