Chopper the ex Copper Alpinestars Fan Jul 23, 2013 #2 Of having it done? Yes. Soft media blasting with crushed walnut shells is safer for aluminium, but a skilled user should be ok with glass bead.

Chopper the ex Copper Alpinestars Fan Jul 23, 2013 #4 Just ask for soft media then. Unless they're a real Fred in a Shed it won't be a problem.
