Re: Help locating Barn Door bumper/rubber spacer

If you have access to one I've had good luck running rubber snubbers, seals or bumpers or cushions, what ever one wants to call them, thru my glass bead cabinet. I normally blast cast iron and steel parts at about 80 psi. When I do small rubber parts I turn the pressure regulator down to about 40 psi. They come out looking almost like new.

The Dawn dish soap and water soak seems like a good try also. Maybe after the bead blast to open the rubber pores.
