Hi guys,
recently splashed out on a bigger compressor and blasting cabinet, also got some of the garnet blast media from Machine Mart:
www.machinemart.co.uk/p/20-kg-blast-cabinet-abrasive-80-grit/
The stuff works ok but just turns to dust.
About 4 years ago I used a cabinet in a workshop that had some sort of black sand in it, that stuff was great and did not turn to dust, it could be used over and over but I have no idea what it was.
what do you guys recommend for a good durable blast media? and what supplier if you know one?
cheers as always for your help.
