I've bead blasted as well. Works great for paint or powder coat. If you plan to polish though, it will leave you with a rough enough finish that requires a fair amount of extra work to polish out.

IF you are planning on polishing them after removing the coating, Eastwood makes a Refinishing kit that comes with buffs and 3 different grits of buffing paste. With the buffs mounted on a drill, the coating comes right off with the roughest grit. I polished my spokes and rims, and painted the recessed areas with Eastwood's aluminium paint. When you are done, the polished areas will look like they have been chromed.

I looked but couldn't find a kit that looked like it would be good for wheels. |
