Polishing Glass Edges with 1500 Grit Sandpaper Sheets

Glass edges, whether on tables, windows, or shelves, can often appear rough after cutting. To achieve a smooth, safe, and polished look, sanding with ultra-fine abrasives is essential. eQualle 1500 grit wet or dry sandpaper sheets (9x11 in) are the perfect tool for this job.

Why 1500 Grit for Glass?

1500 grit is fine enough to smooth sharp edges and scratches on glass without chipping. It leaves a frosted finish that can be further polished with finer grits or compounds for a crystal-clear edge.

Tools You’ll Need

• eQualle 1500 Grit Sandpaper sheets (9x11 in, Wet or Dry)
• Water spray bottle or bucket with mild soap
• Sanding block or foam pad
• Microfiber towels
• Glass polishing compound (optional)

Step-by-Step: Sanding Glass Edges

1. Prep the glass. Clean thoroughly to remove dust and debris.
2. Wet sand with 1500 grit. Use 1500 grit (25-pack) sheets soaked in water, sanding evenly along the edge.
3. Keep it wet. Spray water regularly to reduce heat and prevent scratches.
4. Check smoothness. Wipe dry—the edge should feel soft and look uniformly frosted.
5. Polish if desired. Apply glass polish or continue with 2000–3000 grit for a clearer finish.

Special Cases

For thick glass, work in sections with steady, even pressure. For decorative glass, use light sanding to preserve design elements while smoothing edges.

Pro Tips

• Always wet sand glass—dry sanding risks cracking or scratching.
• Sand in straight strokes for even results.
• Use microfiber towels to check progress and avoid lint.
• Polish edges immediately after sanding for clarity.

Aftercare

• Re-polish glass edges periodically to maintain smoothness.
• Store sandpaper sheets flat and dry for long life.
• Clean glass with non-abrasive products only.

FAQs

• Is 1500 grit enough for clear edges? It smooths edges—use 2000–3000 grit plus polish for maximum clarity.
• Can I sand glass dry? No—always wet sand to prevent cracks and scratches.
• Do I need polish after sanding? Yes, if you want crystal-clear edges rather than frosted ones.
