..... if you have a blasting cabinet you will find out no single media will do everything. I like the glass beads for the finish it leaves and for rods/pistons ect. But for the heavy rust stuff I use "mostly" the fine sand. It comes Medium, fine, Xfine. I also have a bag of the Black Beauty as well as a 5 gal bucket of Plastic media. Most blasting cabinets have a nice "drop" under them to change media easily and I take advantage of it.

In my experience I can buy regular blasting sand at the local concrete place that is less money than the play sand!! Plus, the blasting sand is "sized" and works well. Here I just paid $3.28 per 50lb bag for my choice of sand.

The ceramic nozzle are LOTS better than steel and the carbide are really nice. You get what you pay for here.

The cabinet blaster is one of my best investments. I use it a lot.... as well as my friends!!

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
