Want to bead blast a Smith & Wesson Model 64 snub...any recommendations in the Charlotte area (within 30-40 miles). Don't want to ship or wait 3 months for completion. Any recommendations?

I am not sure that I appreciate the difference. Trying to achieve the factory like matte S&W finish. Same thing?

sandblasting will give it a dull matt finish. no shine at all.
