What blasting media does NOT contain "silica" or any material that can cause lung problems...in other words what material is safe where i don't need to worry about wearing OSHA approved equipment to be safe. I plan on using real media material and I'm not going to mess around with "play sand" either | | | | | Joined: Sep 2008 Posts: 872 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Sep 2008 Posts: 872 | Google silica free blasting media.
Unless you use pure sand its not an issue with reasonable ppe (a good p100 filter mask is about it)
