Sand blasting

[Erik Jostad]

Hi Pete,

There are several ways of removing the rust, most methods are mentioned here earlier.

Sand or glass-blasting are good methods, and probably the best way to really remove the rust. Disadvantages are also mentioned earlier.

I prefer the glass-particles, as they are more handsome to the metal than sand. The glass also develop less friction-heat, and the chance of ruining your sheet-metal parts are smaller.

The glass is also very suitable to remove corrosion on aluminium and brass details.
