Sandblasting Canvas Micarta little help!!!

[indyk]

I need some one who is crafty with a sand blaster, Im thinking glass beads might be necessary for this, not sure.

I had someone blast my grips before but etched way to much into the material and I had to redo the grips again.

Im looking for someone who knows what they are doing when it comes to blasting canvas Micarta for knife grips.
If anyone can help around the Indianapolis area please let me know, Iv'e put off finishing this knife for about two years and I'm ready to get her done!!!

if anyone knows anything give me a holler.

What are you trying to accomplish?

Bead blasting micarta brings out the texture in the canvas, the blast makes the canvas pitted which provides grip.

If u have an air compressor, can buy a air brush style sand blaster and fine media for under $40. Habor frieght and hobby shops usally sale them.

I have used it to clean small parts before applying adhesive. Works great with a lot of control, only do the area u want.
