So I took my head to the machine shop to be decked and cleaned.
Got the head back today, pulled the cams out and the Cam Journals were Sand blasted. The polished finish is no more. Can these be repolished or am i completely screwed? Why would anyone do that to begin with?

Never be surprised by the stupidity of others. Just helped my boss clean out what looked like 5-8 bottles worth of stop leak from the coolant jackets on an engine yesterday. It was packed 1 inch deep with stop leak mud everywhere, the stuff was so thick in the engine that one side of the cooling system drained green and the other side drained red coolant.
