Sandblasting near edges.
Posted: Sun Dec 04, 2016 12:52 pm
Hello all,
I've got a pipe I'm working on which will feature a sandblasted surface connected along a a curving edge to a smooth surface. I've had very limited experience with sandblasting in the past and am worried going into it that I risk blasting off the nice defined edge I have between the surfaces. Does anyone find it necessary to mask edges in order to prevent this from happening? If so, what is an effective way to do that?
Thanks in advance for any advice
