It’s another porto glass – slightly bigger than the last one and dedicated for different use. Separating bottom from top is always a big question mark. It worked this time. The process of making a glass like this involves buying a bottle and emptying it – these steps are very satisfying too!

I don’t like to use a word “sanding” for glass, but that’s what it is and it’s working well. Sharp edges from the top were sanded with 60, 80 and 220 grit sandpaper. Then I used 320 one for both top and side edges. Next – 600, 800, 1500 and 3000 grits finished the easy part.

The inside was sanded with 240, 400 and 600 grit sanding bands.

I then used my felt wheel with car polishing paste. Very low RPM’s and still some mess. The finish look, however, impressive – a mirror like surface.

Once the labels were removed the glass was properly cleaned. This is the size comparison with the smaller one:

It’s all about details – some lettering and groove make this glass distinctive.
