are u trying to make a little sandblasting business or do u need parts done for u. if u needs them done and have a air compressor go get a cheap little syphon sandblasting kit and do it yourself. they suck at first but once u get the hang of it its not bad. i got mine for 20$

I have no idea how long it would take you to do the wheels. I'm guessing about 30 minutes to blast it with a good machine. So $20-25/hr ? I'd pay that anyways if you did some real nice work.
Btw, get some work pics up on your site, and take the extra http:// out of the URL, works better

Here in the mid-west and especially in my area, weather it be sand or media blasting it's a flat rate of $60/hr. You'd probably want to check your local area and be a little cheaper startin out, cause common sence tells you people will name slay if ya charge them say $60/hr for 1 rim or timing chain cover. But, when you start blasting the powder coated stuff, like old snow plows, you'll definatley earn your $60/hr. Mine took 3 hrs to get the whole thing to bare metal.
