thought id ask the question as my step daughter boyfriend is talking me into opening a sand blasting business, hes done loads of my stuff and its the dogs nuts just get it re powdered or chromed or even anodised and good as new, will be able to do anything with no damage  :daumenhoch:

sid1972:
If your having it powdered/annodised they do it as part of the price anyway don't they?

think you may get more through car bits, fire place etc..

good look with it..  ;)

thats the thing they always say a bit of work by owner to allow a better finish, open to thoughts on this

i honestly hate sand blasted work, it's like painting over sand paper, it sucks in the finish, are you saying that it's

fine to paint straight over :daumenhoch:

steve69:
I think the term 'sand blasting'  is just used as a general name, there are plenty of different medias to use that give different finishes, i.e. silica beads, crushed walnut shells and so on.
All depends on whether you will be using more specialized abrasives for delicate jobs
