I got started using crushed glass because it was available locally and cheap. Black Beauty/Black Diamond is priced similar but for whatever reason I have never liked it as much. Lots of folks do though and get good results. Some of it may come down to the equipment that is being used. I have a decent but nowhere near top of the line pressure blaster. Maybe one day but the really good machines are $5K and up and hard to justify when only blasting 2 or 3 per year.
You do great work BTW. Have enjoyed reading your posts and seeing the results you get on stuff.
