Hi All
Just went and picked up some sand
And the sand I got was from a sand blaster which is very fine almost like baby powder if it was glued to paper it would be around the 800/1000 grit the first tests were dry and the detail was amazing then i wet some up and the results were just as good
now the sand was Garnett I got around 15Lt's / 3gallon approx and weighs around 30kg/60bl and the best part they thow this stuff away
wetting it down I got it till it was just holding together and broke without crumbling
being new to this
so here's some questions
when mixing the Benoite into it is it 5-10% volume or weight I was guessing Volume as the sand is heavy
with it holding together very well just with water do I have to add Benoite to it
Cheers
Wayne
