We store tumbler media in a number of plastic bins under the tumbler bench. If you change the tumbler media the tumbler tub must be cleaned thoroughly before introducing the new media. | |||

Ceramic media is best suited for deburring steel and iron parts. Fine threads and delicate features may be peened over or damaged by ceramic media and it will remove rust. Gives a dull finish. | |||
