Question 1

What is sandblasting?

Accepted Answer

Glass sandblasting is one of the most desirable etching processes available today because it can help you achieve artistic items with various unique effects.
 
This process uses a sandblaster and an air compressor to power the system which blasts high pressure abrasives onto the glass. The hard abrasives then lightly chips the surface of the glass to create a frosted look. The longer you blast, and the higher the pressure, the deeper the exposed parts of the stencil are etched into the glass.Sandblasting produces a deep, permanent mark, and it allows for greater flexibility in design. Sandblasting is a labor-intensive process.
 
The glasses are first prepped with hand-applied film masks and protective taping. Glasses are blasted with stream of pressurized abrasive in a special cabinet one at a time, then washed and packaged for shipment

Question 3

Is sandblasting permanent?

Accepted Answer

Yes! It’s carved deeply into the glass surface, so it can’t be removed. Dish washing can’t buff it out or scratch it. Ceramics that have been blasted through the glaze may appear to be delicate, but the remaining glazed areas are as sturdy as they began.
