That al5 looks nice! A question, when you bead blast a yoyo, does some of the ano stay on, or does it come off? ---

> [@yoyoavenger](#): > > Have you walnut shell blasted a yoyo? I know that walnut shells are used as a blasting media… Walnut shell is typically used to prevent delicate materials from overheating and can be safely used on things such as sheet metal and fiberglass. I do not understand what significance there is between bead blasting and soda blasting however. I understand that bead blasting is an abrasive blast which is strong enough to remove rust and the like. Soda blasting is intended for a light safer use to remove paint but will not remove rust. For yoyos perhaps, is there any real significance between the two for our purposes? ---

I understand that bead blasting is an abrasive blast which is strong enough to remove rust and the like. Soda blasting is intended for a light safer use to remove paint but will not remove rust. For yoyos perhaps, is there any real significance between the two for our purposes? Just a different texture I suppose. Some variation in grind capabilities maybe. Not a big grinder myself so I can’t really comment on the differences effectively. ---

He actually feels bad for unloading so many yoyos on you at once. He’s a very understanding guy! But I’m sure you already know that 🙂 ---

I had unwrapped them and started thinking about what they would look good in but that’s as far as I got. I have had so much going on with my house and a recent auto accident that it has been a real mess for me. Working through it as best I cannot. ---
