How well does it work on sandblasting glass for art and do I need special tools for it?

Artist like to have those polycarbonate chambers with gloves and a vacuum recovery built in like the scientist use on moveis to handle deadly viruses, but you don't really need any extra tools to scratch some glass with this and an air compressor. I frosted a window using this. I used alumina powder because I had some and I heard it makes a smoother, finer 'frost' than sand.

I used it on metal and it do a pretty good job for no bigger than it is. I've never used it on glass. You don't need any special tools.

Iv'e never used mine on glass but for the smaller pieces of metal I use it on I am very happy with it.

As long as the sandpaper is no more course than 600 grit you should be ok....the resin contains some cutters and it will bring luster back to the paint.....

As it is the same principal as a glass cutter I'm going to say yes. Mosaic glass tile might be difficult but other than that you should be fine.

Absolutely!! Used another attachment to sand down a long side of a painting to fit in a frame - and it worked perfectly!! There is a cutter attachment for what I think you need.. just keep your skin out of the way. :)

No,it won't work on sand dollars since this product is made for plating thin gold on metals. I would recommend you to use a gold paint comes in liquid form( you can find at any craft stores or hardware stores,of course,you can find it on amazon,too) for your project instead of this item. Good luck

For glass you can scrape it with a razor, for paint I am not sure. Maybe using rubbing then polishing compound would do it.

I did not use it on glass but I used it on marble that was small border pieces and it worked well.

Should work just fine, but Joe has a point about 'softness' of the pad. Even if it's not exactly what you're looking for, it's good to have a more varied type of pad in case you have some light contour sanding. It should also work just fine for regular 'flat' sanding. Might be a tad less aggressive.

You need a machine. I used an orbital sander and it worked like a dream. I made the marble was wet all the time with just a sponge. You might see scratches if you don't wet the marble and don't skip any pads. I actually used sandpaper (50 the 200) in place of the stadea pads, then used the stadea after that.

The machine will work but effectiveness depends entirely on the grit of the sandpaper you buy. Get a 60 or 80 grit for tough dried on drips. 120 for lighter sanding

I`ve used it on glass and other things. Its abrasive so it wont leave your glass looking pristine, but it will clean the hard water residue, it did for me anyway. Glass blocks are pretty tough... it should do the trick. If you are worried about scratches, try a little on one block.Can`t hurt. Its worth buying.

I thought I just answered this question. This would be the way to go about your sanding job. Good luck...

I've used it mostly to work/polish glass and it works great for this medium. Sorry can't be of more help.

The scratch remover works great and the polish does too. But it's designed for acrylic. So I don't know if will work on regular plastic. It might work but if it doesn't the fine sand will ruin you glasses. I would try to find out if your glasses are made of acrylic or plastic. You might try calling the company to see if it will work on plastic licenses before you try it.

I drilled a tiny hole in the glass of a outdoor light fixture that was getting some condensation for a weep hole, I used a pencil pointed diamond bit and took it slow.Worked fine but that was the only time I have used it to drill glass and have never used it on tile.

I would guess it will be quite a bit of work, depending on how long its been on the glass. I would think it would need to be saturated with water/ glass cleaner and probaly use a scraper. Hope this helps.

Yes. I have used several different types of glue on my glass mosaic artwork, (which includes pins and other pieces of jewelry), and Beacon 527 is the best I've found.
