Macon Innovations 228 Posted March 7, 2016 Just depends on your desired result....That Glass was at about 60 PSI and just a couple inches away but done very quickly....Im playing around now with various pressures and distance to achieve different effects....Doesn't take much to change the look...

darcshadow 1,626 Posted March 7, 2016 Also, FYI, glass bead media is more targeted at stripping paint or cleaning up rust. Trying to use glass to etch glass is not an efficient method. For etching you want a media that is harder than the item being etched. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Go-C Graphics 856 Posted March 7, 2016 Another FYI Glass beads are also very dangerous to use without the proper respiration equipment. The dust produced will kill you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
