        If you can guarantee removal of ALL remaining media, use glass beads, or garnet… You won’t like the results of missing one single bead…. Also note, you can use too much air pressure… that will shatter the glass beads making things much worse.

        I personally no longer use that as I failed to remove all media on a motor and ruined it so I use walnut shells to remove paint, rust I use liquid rust remover..
