Default RE: Media Blasting Jets

Ok, well I have made some progress on this. I sprayed some pieces with 40/60 glass bead and the finish was great!! The only problem is that it goes pretty slow. Its not an aggressive media so it moves along pretty slow. Also since it does move slow and requires a good amount of pressure, my poor home compressor is just not big enough to keep going for more than a couple minutes at a time. I will continue to search for better results.

Maybe I will give it a light going over with the aluminum oxide then finish it off with the glass bead.
