Glass beads are a great media for those items that would be damaged by more abrasive media. The quality of these beads is excellent.

Works great for paint removal and light rust. If you have heavy rust it cuts through but takes time. The finish is good smooth dull finish on steel and aluminum. After blasting I use a wire brush to bring back the shine. Worked great for my needs.

Excellent Product and Seller. A+++++

this stuff is good excellent bead blasting material..

I have a small import blast cabinet that I've tried big-box store sand and grocery store baking soda in. Neither of them dropped to the siphon tube well and both of them clouded the small space so much that it was nearly impossible to see the part I was blasting.

Contrast that with this excellent product. The beads are slippery, so they slide right down the funnel to the siphon really well. Regardless of the quantity of media in the cabinet I have never had feed problems.

Visibility is excellent. I no longer struggle to see what I'm working on and I can instead focus on the work I'm doing.

Surface finish is amazing. I've used the media to clean some rusty tools. The resulting finish is very nearly a factory finish. It cleans right to original machining marks without obliterating them. On steel it leaves a clean, glossy surface without roughness or pitting. On aluminum it leaves a good shine and only slightly peens the surface. I've found that blasting at an angle to the surface produces the best finish.

I can't compare this to other glass bead products, but if you're coming from other media I think you'll really be impressed with the huge difference this product makes.
