FAQ’s
What is the sandblasting method?
Once the design is approved, we will basically make a stencil to use on the item. The item is covered completely, minus the stenciled design. The item is then placed in our sandblasting cabinet. By hand, we guide high-speed sand to cut the surface of the material, leaving the design to be engraved. The sand removes the top surface layer of the item’s material, so you can literally feel the depth of the design.
How quickly will I receive the finished product?
We have a basic 2-week turnaround on all products. This heavily depends on how busy we are at the time of your visit. Since we are a small-business, we ask for patience but always are honest about timeframes. We are often times able to accommodate your deadlines, if need be! Please bear with us and plan accordingly during the holiday season, as that is our busiest time of year.
Can you sandblast items that I bring you?
We offer etching on items that you purchase through us directly as well as items you bring from home. We will make sure the item is capable of being etched before moving forward with the project. Please keep in mind that sometimes our sandblasting process can damage items or the end product might not be as clean depending on the item brought from home. We may decline an item as we see fit and you may have to sign a waiver so that we aren’t responsible for damaged items.
What items can be sandblasted?
Crystal, glass, metal, ceramic, and other hard materials can be sandblasted. When you choose an item from us or bring one from home, we will let you know if it can be sandblasted! Keep in mind the process of sandblasting, when removing the material’s top layer then what is underneath is exposed.
Is there a size limit on items being sandblasted?
We must be able to place the item inside of our sandblasting cabinet. Please inquire about larger items and we will let you know if it’s doable. If not, we can help find another decorating method to suit your needs!
