RE: [Chrysler300] Vibratory Tumbler

I haven't used a tumbler, but do own and use a bead blast cabinet.  For
small parts such as screws and clips, I place them in a small handheld metal
screen strainer or colander, like what is used in the kitchen. It works
great and is fast.

Subject: [Chrysler300] Vibratory Tumbler

I am starting to work on the small parts for the F convert restoration and
wonder if a vibratory tumbler would be a good investment for my meager tool
collection.  Seems like it would be nice to clean small parts, screws, etc.

 

Any thoughts as to whether I am missing the boat here or any suggestions as
to which units might "do the trick?"   I know that a sand blasting cabinet
would me nice for larger parts, but I have a lot of small stuff, as well.

 

Best wishes, Merry Christmas and a happy holiday season to all.
