Move gun back and forth over the template in a
brushing manner. Blast at a 90
o
angle. For fine polishing,
use glass beads for the abrasive.
Use brushing strokes and watch the abrasion rate
carefully. Soft wood will wear faster than hardwood.
Smaller grit sizes give a smoother finish. Start with low
pressure and gradually build up pressure. Blast at a 45
o
angle.
Use brushing strokes and watch the abrasion rate
carefully. Use walnut shells for coarse finishing and glass
beads for final finishing. Blast at a 45
o
angle.
Use larger grit media on a hidden area. If the base
material is being damaged, use a smaller grit. Blast at
an 80 – 90
o
angle.
Use brushing strokes and watch the abrasion rate
carefully. Soft wood will wear faster than hard wood.
Smaller grit sizes give a smoother finish. Star
t with low
pressure and gradually build up pressure. Blast at a
45 - 60
o
angle.
Remove flaking paint first with wire brush, then blast
with a heavy grit abrasive. Multiple layer of old paint
should be scraped first. Prime immediately following
blasting to prevent corrosion. Blast at a 45 - 60
o
angle.
