Stripping a plate

[Piano Lanco]

Try plastic beads - not as agressive and they tend to "pack" the surface
instead of wearing it out.

I've used glass beads with some success. I've not tried sand so don't know
if glass beads are better or not. Priming and finishing were not all that
difficult.

I wonder if perhaps towards the end of the sandblasting process, switching
to a softer media might not yield a smoother surface than sand?  Just a
thought...

I had wondered about glass beads or walnut hulls instead of actual sand.
