Hi Francesco,

I would start with something more gentle, walnut shells. If they don't give
you what you are looking for I would then try glass beads.

Hello!
I'm planning to buy a sandblaster gun for remove rust from my iron
meteorites and also for remove rust-sand from an as-found Muonionalusta.

Wich type of sand is better?
SiO2 (corundum), iron powder or glass microsphere? Wich #grit?


Thanks a lot!

Francesco!
IMCA #1510
