Chaps I am after some more help

I am looking to get either a gravity fed shot booth from fleabay probably a clark one

or buy a 20 gallon clark pressure pot like this one

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Clarke-CP...655?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3f1f5e9bf7

Obviously with the pressure pot I would need to build a shot cabinet but on the plus side I can make it larger to take things like rear subframes etc and I can also build a frame for it to sit on so its at the correct height for me and incorporate the pressure pot into the base to keep it out of the way

The main things I am after guys is opinions on both of these types of systems and also what would be the best media to use with them for general all round blasting

cheers chaps
