Zusammenfassung:	A process for treating a surface of a component to improve its surface finish and induce residual compresses stresses in a near-surface region of the component. The process entails performing a first peening operation to form residual compressive stress layers in the near-surface region of the component, and then performing at least a second peening operation to cause surface smoothing of the surface of the component while retaining residual compressive stresses in the near-surface region of the component. The first peening operation comprises wet glass bead peening at a first intensity with a first glass bead media, and the second peening operation comprises wet glass bead peening at a second intensity with a second glass bead media, wherein the second intensity is lower than the first intensity and the second glass bead media is smaller than the first glass bead media.
