If you're not in Texas, you might be able to save on shipping costs by purchasing media at a local vendor.
For a great all-purpose abrasive, we recommend 40/70 mesh recycled glass. It will work for just about any application, and is usually cheap and readily available.
Purchase Online
We sell the recycled glass for $11.50 per 50 lb bag on 40-bag pallets in the Online Store.
