I did some work on a guy's FJ Cruiser, and he has a bead blaster sitting in his garage.  He normally uses it for refinishing firearms as a side hobby, but was kind enough to clean up a couple of my parts.



This is much better than the wire wheel and sandpaper I was using.



The inside of the oil pan still has some rust, so I went ahead and oiled it when I was priming and painting.





Just one fuzzy picture of it piled in the back of the truck with everything else.
