I keep getting wet sand from Homepot and my local nursery.
Does anyone know where where I can get dry media for my gravity
sandblaster in DALLAS?

Thanks,
Terry

Look up abrasives in the yellow pages. Usually on the first page. Don't use
sand from Homedepot or nurseries, they can't guarantee the quality and
grain. A bag of proper sandblasting sand is cheap $8.00 or so for a 50 lb
bag.

If you find a store that carries media you might think about trying some
alternative materials. For some uses they are better anyway. Less
chance of warping a body panel with walnut shells, different textures
with beads, etc... Just a thought.

lay it out in the sun for an hour - it will dry out.
