Kyle Asks: What is the best kind of media to use on glass, and what type of air pressure do you use. and is higher pressure or higher volume better. thanks K
My Response:
Hi Kyle,
Sorry for the late response. The best sandblasting media to use on glass is silicon carbide or aluminum oxide. It cuts the glass fast because it is hard and can be reused multiple times.
Air pressure depends on if you want to do sandcarving or light surface etching.
20-30 psi of pressure is adequate for surface/light etching while about 40-70 psi is usually good for sandcarving glass.
Yes, higher pressure and higher volume will etch the glass quicker.
I hope that helps.
