Just wondering what is used for marble. Not sure if the resist I have will be appropriate.

Thanks

The regular rubber stuff is used for stone too.

If the Marble is polished, I use Anchor #117 (lighter tack).

Hi Tim,

I use Anchor #116, high tack, mainly because it's worked on everything I've blasted.

The most important thing about the sandblast resist when blasting something hard, like marble, is how long it will hold up to the friction/heat, to achieve the depth you're looking for.

Thanks, I normally have #117 in stock and will use that. I just wasnt sure if it was the same for marble, it only mentions wood.

Guess I have a few hours of handcutting now! This design is celtic knotwork and very tight and small, it will not keep tracking straight in my friction feed with all the tight corners it needs to make.

Tim,
You may try some Hartco 535. It cuts very easily on plotters and holds up fine on marble/stone.
