Bead blasting a range of substrates to provide a cosmetic finish.
A high-grade soda lime glass bead manufactured
by the process of cascading a granulated soda lime
glass powder or grain into a vertical kiln and then
using the effect of softening the glass and gravity to
cause the rounding of the glass grit or cullet. This
technique has been refined to produce a sphere
that is almost perfectly round, and in the reflective
product, produces a prism that can have refractive
indices as high as 2. Available in commercial,
premium AMS and military specifications.
