Alcoa rims for $100
#27
I dont have the media, nor do I have the tips.
You need like coconut shells to blast those rims. Which requires a different tip for my gun. And those tips run about a grand. All I have is what came with the unit.
Pool sand, glass bead, extra fine sand will RUIN those rims. Sandblasting aluminum rims is a BIG deal. For one, its very easy to warp the rim, then its junk.
I wont blast those rims.
