I have used both a siphon sand blaster and wire wheels in a angle grinder and die grinder. The wire wheels are really quick when you use them in those tools but you will have to wear face protection with them. As both of those tools spin the wheels faster than they are supposed to go. So they really throw ther wires. I use them to the majority of the work. I use the sand blaster to get into tight spaces. Now if you have a pressurized sand blaster you have to be real careful of overheating the metal, as others above me said.
