this would be the easy way. for some reason there are some really bad blasters out there who have ruined the whole industry and left people scared to get anything blasted. Moparts has its experts and they like to say that their process is the best. (which is just might be) but I guess its the difference in doing a 20 year resto or actually just getting the job done in a couple hours.

i have blasted hundreds of rims, i don't get media stuck in the seams. I must have just been lucky i guess. i dont knock off number stampings or make some massive surface profile in the steel like everybody is scared of. despite the moparts popular opinion blasting steel wheels will not blow holes through them or cause them to warp. lol
