Last Sand blasting question... Plexiglass or Tempered Glass?

[IMBLITZVT]

So Plexiglass or Tempered Glass?

I am not worried about mounting or price. Price is about the same.

I have the Mylar inside covers.

I just need to decide which will stand up better over time. Which will etch first? Which would you use? Thanks guys!

Both will etch if they get a direct hit, but I would think that the tempered glass would hold up better.

Most cheap blast cabinets have plexiglass while the industrial untis I have used all had tempered.

I think the peal offs will help alot, if cutting for you is a issue, plexiglass is a little easier to cut, if a shops doing it, I would think glass would be a little more durable.

Later down the road if it becomes eched both can be polished and buffed out, not sure if it would be worth it with either, since I cannot imagine its that costly to replace either.

laminated saftyglass is your best bet

Ok, I got the Tempered glass ordered. $35.00 for a custom cut piece... not to bad.
