Tumbling grotty parts
Posted by admin on September 22nd, 2009 at 10:40am
Any of you who have tumblers ever use them to clean parts, as well as debur or polish them? I’m worried about contaminating the media.
I routinely have small parts that have plastic + adhesive residues on them that are so stubborn that I have to use a wire wheel to get them off, which ruins my finish without more heavy polishing.
Could I prep the parts (cut, machine etc) them, leaving the residues on, and when it’s time for debur and polish, use a tumbler to do all that? With the right media of course.
