Suggestions
Move gun back and forth over the template in
a brushing manner . Blast at a 90° angle . For fine
polishing, use glass beads for the abrasive . For
drilling holes, use 30 sieve sand .
Use brushing strokes and watch the abrasion
rate carefully . Soft wood will wear faster than
hardwood . Smaller grit sizes gives smoother finish .
Start with low pressure and gradually build up
pressure . Blast at a 45° angle .
Use brushing strokes and watch the abrasion rate
carefully . Use walnut shells for coarse finishing and
glass beads or fine sand for fine finishing . Blast at a
45° angle .

angle .
Use larger grit sand on a hidden area . If the base
material is being damaged, use a smaller grit . Blast
at a 80 - 90° angle .
