I recently tried glass beads as could not get kiln dried sand at the time, took ages to load it into the pot and the dust was untrue, worked OK but needed very different settings re grit supply/air supply, and if the two are mixed absolutely useless to get a regular pattern, so yes kiln dried sand is king, got the Patrol to re do after all the damage sustained off road so will try and post pics, Rick
