    The shop we used for vapor blasting components closed leaving Austin without that service.
    I have tried reaching out to several in Dallas found by in Google search but none have responded. Can anyone help with a recommendation?
    The pieces are drive train parts which have been degreased.

    Austin is pretty much a wasteland for subcontractors. Might try San Antonio.

    It looks like Houston is next on the list. Competent Automotive machine shops are vanishing also.

    For some time I was sending most of it back to California after a few really terrible and costly experiences here. One of the California guys called it quits and retired during covid and the other decided to transition into a Pot dispensary because its so much more profitable. I finally found one here but its a 60 mile drive out into the country.

    I have heard similar stories throughout the country. A 60 minute drive to the country beats three hours north or south.
