Static
electric
shocks can be painful. Some
abrasives similar to aluminum
oxide can create static
electricity while you are sand blasting.
If you are not grounded, the static
electricity can build up on your body
and cause a shock when you touch a
metal object. You can avoid static
electricity by wearing leather soled
shoes and standing on the ground. If
necessary, a grounded wire attached to
the sand blast gun will safely remove
