An apparatus for edge processing of a glass sheet is provided, the apparatus including a shroud, a finishing member and a wiping device. The finishing member is substantially enclosed by the shroud. The apparatus uses pressurized air emitted by at least one slot in the wiping device to prevent contaminants resulting from the edge processing from settling on and/or adhering to surfaces of the glass sheet. The wiping device may include a jet of washing fluid directed at the glass sheet to further wash the surfaces and the processed edge of the glass sheet.
