if you go to a cut glass hoby store you can get glass rub stones, they take a bit but work good, if you want to use sand paper you need silicon carbide paper (as mentioned above) with a heavy weight back. don't even try other typed of grit. if you can find it in low quantities start with a 80 grit then go to a 150ish, then depending on how smooth you want it finnish off with a 220 then higher like 400 if you want.. if it is not a visual edge I would stop at the 220 that should leave you almost a frosted look.

Thanks for the tips guys. I'm not to concerned with how it looks, just the fact that if I don't take care of the sharp edge now there will be a day where I cut myself on it as it is close to where my skimmer is so my hands will be in there on a regular basis.

if you don't have abelt sander already that you can find proper belts for then just buy a rubstone and knock the edges down then.. any stained glass shop has them.
