A Wet-Peening Adapter for Air-Abrasive Machines
An adapter that permits the use of air-abrasive machines for wet-peening operations is described. This adapter is essentially a pair of nested syringe needles. It is inexpensive and easy to construct. Wet-peening has proven to be more effective than dry-peening for the removal of certain cohesive, polygranular encrustations from mineral specimens.
