Parts come out like new castings from the foundry. No rust, paint or anything else, inside and out. We bake iron in a slow rotating drum at about 650 degrees F for an hour. Then it goes directly into a stainless steel shot machine with .030" tiny steel wire shot for 45 minutes.

Where are you located?
I have no concept...of what anything costs anymore.....

Figured if that what the price was....I would find an alternate method...

I'm north of Seattle...about 150 miles...
