![]() ![]() Blasting should be done as far away from the window as possible and at a 45° angle so that the media deflects off to the side of the cabinet instead of right back at it. ![]() The life you get on them depends on how close you blast to your window and what PSI your blasting at. They are meant to be applied to the window and they take the beating instead of the glass. These are just like the little plastic sheets you put on the touchscreen of your cell phone. Peel-off window films protect the sandblasting cabinet window. This can happen to the point of not being able to see through the window at all. If you do nothing to protect it, the window will slowly be etched by your media bouncing back and hitting the glass. Your blast cabinet comes with a tempered glass window for safety reasons.

Unless you buy a larger cabinet that comes with great lighting, built-in dust collection, and is perfectly air tight out of the box, then you will need to do some modifications to your cabinet to make it more efficient.įirst, the cabinet I mentioned above is about the cheapest floor-standing cabinet available that closely matches the dimensions of a household oven. This is the point where you may want to spend the money on a larger, higher quality blast cabinet or hire-out your blasting. An exception to this is that while most wheels will fit into the cabinet like the one mentioned above, if you want to turn the wheel over, it has to come out of the cabinet, be flipped around, and go back in. As long as you don't get to claustrophobic, you don't necessarily need a gigantic blasting cabinet.
