I used aluminum oxide 100 grit. About 2 hours worth. One down, three to go. This was the worst of the four. Some serious curbing on the edge as well as the field of the wheel. I removed that with a die grinder and then finished blasting. These are to be snow tire wheels. I'm going to either clear powder coat or do something like Argent Silver. Haven't decided yet.

Yeah, me too. But I wanted to control the finish quality if I do clear and I didn't want to pay silly money to have someone else do it.
