it's jsut plain old silica dirt (inexpensive and expendable)
now glass beads etc is whereyou start recycleing it all and getting 4-10 uses out of a bucket....

i would post this question in the paint and body section the guys there know alot more about it then myself...
im a total novice =-(
i hope you are using a respirator and some form of dust prevention. silica is a known cancer causing agent. get that in your lungs and it can develop into cancer many years later. i used to blast with starblast, contains silica. i REALLY MESSED UP my lungs doing that. didn't use a respirator and i had a hard time breathing for months. i wouldn't doubt one day i come down with cancer because i was young and dumb.
