After cutting your bottle, it's best to sand and polish the cut to make sure the newly cut bottle doesn't cut you. Want to learn how to cut bottles? Here are links to three of my videos:

"In the video I started with 80 grit, but I found that 60 is better to start", This is a quoted from a comment made one year ago by the video-maker, "How Do YOU? DIY"'. He also said the sequence doesn't need to be exact, but close.

I just noticed this vid’s a few years old, but I just wanted to say thanks for the vid! I have experience with woodworking, and electrical work, but I’d never worked with glass before, or done much wet sanding, and this helped me to sand the edges on a glass pane that I got to make a surface to mix homemade watercolor. It only took me about 15-20 minutes to get those edges safe and as even as I could eyeball it, and while I might go back and touch it up later, so far I’ve made 7 pans of paint!

I spent about an hour on 80 grit to smooth out the top completely, not including rounding the edges, both arms worn out. I decided to try an orbital sander and was able to smooth out the top and round the edges in about 20 minutes, stopping to check progress frequently. It's important to wear a mask since you cannot use an orbital sander wet, but otherwise orbital is the way to go if you have one.

@HowDoYouDIY
@HowDoYouDIY 4 жыл бұрын
Thanks!! It depends a lot on the thickness of the glass. Thick glass could sometimes need more than one square. With soda bottles I've been able to use one square for a couple bottles. If it seems like you're not getting the progress you were earlier with the same square, just try a fresh sheet and see if the progress improves a lot. The grit does wear down fast with glass, especially when you're trying to smooth out the surface with the 80 grit.

@HowDoYouDIY
@HowDoYouDIY 6 жыл бұрын
+Ashli Garcia I think one way to sand down something that size would be to hold it with something, maybe pliers, and sand it with the other hand. If you do this, you will want to use a lot of padding or cloth between the lense and teeth of the pliers so that you don't scar up the surface of the lens. I know there are other ways too, but this may work.

One thing I didn't really think about was making sure the sandpaper didn't scratch the sides of the glass, so now I have scratches going around the glass about half an inch down the rim (and further down in one spot). Do you have any tips for removing the scratches from the sides?

80 grit is enough to remove the sharp edges and it should be safe to use, but each of the other grits go a lot quicker. The main thing that takes a long time with 80 grit is getting the surface flat. You can spend about a minute or two on each of the other grits if you want a smoother final surface.

We make many of these at home from wine glasses by peeling the labels, scoring them, and using temperature to snap them in two. I reccomend using a rough handheld diamond sanding pad to start off [it might chip the edges, but I’m not sure]. The diamond pad says “50,” but who knows what that means. I couldn’t tell from the video; is the rim of the glass clear, or would it need a polishing compound?

@TrinitronX
@TrinitronX Жыл бұрын
Very good question! The purpose of the wet sanding in general appears to be to reduce the amount of glass/silica dust which is created during the sanding process. Therefore, any wetting agent that is effective with silica dust should be effective. Mineral oil as a term is imprecise and can refer to any refined petroleum oil product. As such, be careful what type of “mineral oil” you are using as a wet sanding wetting agent, as some refined petroleum products can be carcinogenic. If you wish to use mineral oil as a wet sanding agent and/or lubricant, try to find the more highly refined “food safe mineral oil”.

Pablo, if you have a dremel there are sanding drum bits you can use for the rounding part. To speed up the initial surfacing, you would need a way to rotate the bottle, like chucked in a lathe, and then hold a sanding block against it. Would be worth setting up if you had a lot of bottles to do.

It is possible. I usually start this process with 80 grit or 60 grit to level the surface. If you're trying to make the glass shorter, it may take a long time because glass is very hard. You should be able to also bevel the edges with sandpaper, but again, it will take a lot of time.

That's a really good question. I've seen someone build an adaptor for a drill to hold a bottle. I've never tried it, but it is possible. I've also seen someone use a pottery wheel with sandpaper on it. Doing more than 1-2 bottles definitely needs an easier technique than this.

I want to remove calcium buildup from glass without scratching the glass or altering it in any way. I assume all the papers, including 2000 grit, would alter the glass. Any suggestions? Thanks for the video!
@HowDoYouDIY
@HowDoYouDIY 4 жыл бұрын
Yes, even the 2000 grit may alter the glass. For calcium buildup I would recommend wrapping it in a paper towel soaked in vinegar. I haven't tried removing calcium buildup from a bottle, but I would guess that this would help. I have a KZfaq video about removing labels and print from glass bottles where I used this technique on the print: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jJt_laV6t5Oaaas.html

@@HowDoYouDIY Thank you, that's what I was afraid of. I'm going to buy some diamond polishing compound and try that. I'll get 3 grits to try, 0.5 to 3.0 micron, which is much finer than the 2000 grit paper. If the 0.25 won't remove the calcium, I'll try the 3.0 and use the 0.5 to re-polish the glass if necessary.

Sandpaper isn't very expensive, especially if you get a multi-grit pack that has all the grits you need. The links for sandpaper that I have in the description are about $10-$15, and can be used multiple times. But you are right about the time it takes. It can take a very long time, especially if you're doing several.

That's a great question! For this bottle, I don't remember. The longest part to sand is the first grit. Depending on how deep the nicks are, the first step can take anywhere between 10 minutes to over an hour. Once the surface is flat, the other grits for polishing go much quicker, about 2 minutes per grit.

@HowDoYouDIY
@HowDoYouDIY 5 жыл бұрын
I haven't figured out a good way to get rid of the scratches, but to prevent them it's best to sand the corners of the edges at an angle and keep the sand paper short. The farther it extends past the sanding surface the more likely it is to scratch the inside. But make sure your fingers are protected, you don't want to get cut.

@HowDoYouDIY
@HowDoYouDIY Жыл бұрын
It does take me a bit of time (typically 30-60 minutes per bottle) but I'm not sure what you would consider a small fortune. In the description of this video I have links to a couple sandpaper assortment packs with all the grits you need. One is about $16 (larger paper) and one is about $9 (smaller paper.) I use the larger paper, which I cut each piece into 4 sections. I use each section on several bottles. The smaller paper can be cut into 2 sections. Overall, the most expensive thing is the bottle. The cost of the sandpaper (after considering all of this) is less than $1 per bottle.
