A common fallacy, there. Lots of things are used for sandblasting, but
sand isn't one of them. Most common is aluminum oxide, the same stuff of
which sandpaper is made.


Nonsense. Sand may be obsolete for fancy or specialty work, but is still
commonly used for rough cleanup, like of old cast iron.
