Spen, i had a pair of white tuffs aqua blasted as a trial...they were white anyway but had some ingrained dirt that wouldn't shift. i was not impressed with the results....very rough and pitted. i wouldn't personally recommend it. Tbh i was so disgusted with the result i put them straight on the bay and luckily just about recuperated my money.
Dyeing is probably a better option fella...

Media blast or aqua blast them - loads of sticky threads in the resto section

Search for aqua blast and you should find them

Dunk the bearings and cages in a cup of petrol and clean them with an old paint brush

Pop them back in, pinch the cages back tight and pack them with grease, job done

Or spend a quid each set for new ones at your LBS if you can't be arsed
