Someone emailed me this link. It's very clever - just figured I'd share

This is the type of tip that really helps.
Soda blasting is very good for anything aluminum or magnesium...it doesn't hurt the parent metal...and as stated ..is water soluble.
10 out of 10 for this one.

Thanks for starting this thread... What a great idea!

I'm just about to refurbish my front suspension and was thinking about getting the hubs bead blasted to clean them up.

I'll try this before send them to the blasters...

Thanks again

That's pretty cool. I'll have to bookmark that for future reference.
