Also be careful with your dust collection when using glass or silica
media.  That stuff is REALLY bad to breathe.  The Black Beauty is not great
but no where near as dangerous as some of the finer media.  Walnut shell is
the safest of these.  I use it for sot metals like AL and Brass and it does
a good job most of the time but is not aggressive enough to remove some
types of powder coat.
