    For the amount of glass bead work that I do, I get several months out of a bag of media.

    I actually like it more as it breaks down, its a little less aggressive that way, and you can clean crud off the substrate and not destroy intricate details like casting numbers, stamped letters, etc. Just my preference is all. Main thing is the parts need to be as oil and grease free as humanly possible before they go in the cabinet.

    I don’t do Dollywood polishing either. Not even on brass. if it wasn’t buffed at the factory, I don’t do it either. I like the less high-gloss finish I get on parts with the glass. Looks more natural to me.

    Best,
