Topic: Large Vibration Tumblers and Media

John, Bobby did a PS bracket and a cobra intake for me, and I was very pleased both with the results and the turnaround time.

Thanks for the feedback.  Prior to additional tumbling or the vapor blasting alternative, should I remove the "outie" bumps, or leave them?

John, the bumps are very typical for others that I have done and I assume from the casting process, so I would definitely leave them so that the part doesn?t look obviously refinished.

Guys I was wondering which type of Tumbler and media to use to get a Factory bare steel look...

Most suspension parts such as UCA, LCA, perches, sway bar U-brackets, Strut rod brackets, Rear shock plates...etc

For now my parts look to be polished and I want to tone them down to look Factory correct.

So your looking for one of the large commercial type machines given the parts you listed.

Think they typically use allot of large bags or ceramic rods

There is already an established thread that I will merge this thread with.


An additional one for smaller "bench top" vibrator tumblers is below
