never heard of media blasting gearbox parts

Waste of time i would think?? or has the gerabox been outside in the weather?

If there is slight surface rust on the gears use some crc and a soft green kitchen scourer, if there is heavy rust then there is already more damage done than a bead blaster will ever do to them.

Take it to a car wash that has a hot water engine wash and give it a good blast with the engine degrease cycle
