Looks great, John. I bought a blaster a few years back and loaded it with really fine glass bead. It takes the corrosion off like a dream and leaves a super smooth finish. I may switch the media out to walnut shells in the future, as its less abrasive and can be used on more things.

That is awesome John.
Giving more than necessary is a trait that sets you apart from the average.
That kind of work applied to the pedal cars and boats (and everything else you touch) will create a market John, no doubt about it.
Thank you again.
