FAQ
Q: Why does my glass grinder chip my glass?
Thin or delicate glass can chip if you press too hard against the grinder bit. Try easing back a bit to see if that helps. A coarse grinding bit can chip more delicate glass as well. Try using a finer grade bit.
Q: Can you grind tile with a glass grinder?
Always make sure to wear safety glasses when grinding tile on your glass grinder. Once the piece is smoothed, glue it in place. Some tile pieces will actually need to be completely reshaped such as this one.
Q: What can I use instead of a glass grinder?
An abrasive stone cannot shape your glass pieces the way a glass grinder can, but it can get rid of those nasty little edges on your freshly cut pieces of glass. Instead of taking your glass to the grinder to clean your edges, just run the surface of the stone against the area of your glass that needs smoothing.
Q: How often do you clean a glass grinder?
These tools find applications in various industries, including architectural and scientific glass, ceramics, composites, aerospace, transportation, and more. They are used for grinding, polishing, and surface finishing.
