Initially, to assure Studebaker content:
I was sand blasting a set of Studebaker valve covers (Thanks Dick S.) today in my blast cabinet and realized that I needed to replace the sand that seemed to be like fine marbles. Little effect in the siphon system.
To save time, I went to the local TSC store instead of my paint guy only to find out that they had no sand but stocked an abrasive called Black Diamond for $8.00/bag.
Decided to try it. Holy Smoke[:0] does that stuff cut. I can't tell from the bag the composition of the abrasive but it has earned a permanent place in this cabinet.
Had to reduce the pressure to keep from attacking the steel.
