Been there. It's a decent place if you need some blasting done quick and the way you want it.
Tip. Don't try blasting powder coat.  You can go to a chrome place in cloverde and have them soak it in their acid tank over night first. Then blast.

Have used a similar place in Vic, would definitely recommend. $15 for 15 minutes and that's usually enough to get a project cleaned up. Way better than sitting with a wire brush or wheel for an hour or more. Plus they have all different types of media for blasting.
