I'm thinkin' that sandblasting might not have the desired effect!!

Car wax. LOTS and LOTS of car wax. After you've cleaned the machine, and most of us recommend using sewing machine oil to clean with, start layering a resin based, non abrasive car wax. Apply, dry, buff, repeat. Sometimes it takes a lot, sometimes only takes once....but you can have a pretty, shiny, machine with it...one that has a durable finish.
