Dave: Was that your project?
Folks: I just did a little experiment to try to see what would happen if I were to sand-blash clear PVC to make it frosted. The results are not very good. It took quite a bit more silicon carbide to get the same frostiness on a piece of clear PVC shower curtain than it does for glass. I only have a micro-blaster for use in doing sandblasting of glass for jewelry. If you want to try sand blasting clear PVC tubing, ADX has a larger sand blasting system than I do.

I think that LED ring was PEX, not PVC.

I thought it looked pretty good. I would try going to Home Depot and look at their PVC tubing and see if there is any thing there. I know there is clear PVC tubing and black pvc tubing; perhaps there could be frosted clear. All else fails, get some semi clear (frosted) shower curtains and cut into strips and wrap them around the strips of LED's. Truly, Mark Allyn Portland, Oregon www.allyn.com 971-563-7588
