sand blasting question
Posted: Wed Apr 28, 2004 9:38 pm
I have been sandblasting a set of steel rims. Well, over all things have gone well. I am using a 40lbs pressurised sand blaster from HF, and black blast for my sand (low in silica). Well, my problem is this; I use a face shield to protect my face from the sand bouncing back. It works pretty well, actually too good. It is now getting very hard to see through it.
What do you guys/gals use to protect your face? I do not want to keep buying these face shield every couple of pieces I sand blast, as that would be about $15 a pop.
Are there any cheap alternatives, or a mask that will have removable lenses?
I need something fairly cheap, as I will only be doing my radiator core support, subframe, firewall, and inner fenders, and one more steel rim, and then will not use this blaster for quite a while.
thanks as always
