Default Re: NEED TO CLEAN MY ALUMINIUM INTAKE

The media used in the tumbler takes time to figure out. Dozens of different cermaic media to pick from. Also the cycle time on how long its tumbled is important or your part will come out looking like chrome. And if not carefull, you can remove the numbers and logos.

Took me about 3-4 months to break the code on doing them correctly. What's nice when the parts are done, is they won't look dirty again, dust and dirt don't stick to parts as it would when glass beading and you just wipe it down with a paper towel and brake clean. Low maintanance.
