>If it is just dust, it's not going to do anything, it is going to get combusted and go out the exhaust... Same goes with sandblasting and powdercoating stuff.
Negative. You need to get the intake as clean as possible. Do you mind if sand gets in your intake? that's what you're saying here. While some might 'blow through', it doesn't get combusted it gets ground into the valve seats and cylinder walls. These are abrasives and that's not what at you want inside the cylinder.
