Thread: Blasting Media

Tweet

Anybody know a place to get blasting media like aluminum oxide? I figured they would sell it at Sears or Home Depot but I can't find it anywhere. Is there anything else I can use to blast stuff like control arms?

try a local speed shop or body shop. If they dont have any to sell im sure they can tell you where to buy it

Look in your local directory under Abrasives.

you can get glass beads thru napa. theres several grits.

Try this; http://www.abrasivedepot.com/ad/mss/...pagename=start

Glass beads work great.
so if you can get at napa, sounds like the way to go

Harbor Freight also sells 25# and 50# containers of glass bead and aluminum oxide. Of course their selection of different grit is limited.

I'll try NAPA. Thanks for all the help.

my napa sells it because they sell the cheap plastic blast cabnet. i'm sure they can order it. comes in plastic buckets.

If you are located in Jacksonville, FL look up Corrosion Specialties. They are in located in Jacksonville. They will have most any abrasive you could want.
