Bead Blasting Service

I work at a company who has a bead blaster and have got the approval to do bead blasting on my spare time. I resently bead blasted my used up pipe and it made it look brand new. If any one is looking to have something bead blasted (ie rims for painting, up pipe, etc) i will do it for them for a small charge plus shipping. the demensions of the blaster are 15" wide 16.5" tall and 30" deep. If you are unfamiliar with what bead blasting is it is almost identical to sand blasting except it uses beads of glass which are supposed to be better. So i just thought i would get it out there that i can do this if someone is in need of this service! Any questions or suggestions feel free to email me at surfer5567@hotmail.com, pm me, or just post here.
thanks!!

where are you located possibley to avoid shipping? it would be kind of hard to fit a good size rim in there when you think about it, dimension wise.

im located in salinas, 30 min. from monterey. it depends on the rim size. i might be able to fit a 17 in there but it would be tight.

yeah, but i do have a few contacts who could do it if you were really serious. I could probably even set up pick up and delivery.

I totally thought this topic was NWS, and the I checked last night in the comfort of my home to find out that "bead blasting" was a legitimate service.... Thank God!
