    Where can I get a revolver bead blasted at a reasonable price locally?

    Thanks for any leads.

    If you were near me you could use the cabinet.
    Probably a good place to check would be a local garage or motorcycle / bike shop. Or someone that does sign-making or firearm type graphics.
    Somebody on here may have a rig that would let you use it that's closer to where your at.

    I have a blast cabinet in my shop. For normal cleaning of aluminum or steel automotive parts, I keep a course crushed glass media in it. If I need a fine satin finish, I switch to glass beads (easier said than done since all of the existing media needs to be removed first).

    Is the revolver fully disassembled? What type of a surface finish are you looking for?

    Lastly, where are you located?
