    why not try using baking soda or pecan shells? both processes are alot less harsh.

    If you glanced the tire maybe, or if you had it set to it's lowest setting maybe, but I've watched industrial sandblasting equipment strip an inch off concrete walls. Trust me, it'll destroy rubber.

    PS: I like how you've disabled reputation now.

    hopefully common sense would tell you you are a ****ing failure at life for trying to sand blast rubber.
    You know better; next time will be a ban.

    You don't have to use sand, media blasting with anything from pecan shells to glass beads work just as well. The glass beads do not damage rubber and chrome.
