Re: Commercial parts tumbler
I vibratory tumbler really only puts a finish on items, and deburrs. Paint takes forever to come off, grease and oil will come off in time. I like to glass bead, then tumble, on anything "dirty". Carbon steel, aluminium,and some castings come out nice. Stainless is a bit of a different story, takes a bit longer with less results. Machined finishes will still need to be taped, and getting the media out can be a pain at times, it gets stuck in holes and between fins...Alternator cases are fun.
