Overview
Sandblasting, or abrasive blasting, propels fine particles at high speed to clean surfaces thoroughly. After assessing the surface to choose the abrasive and pressure, particles such as sand or glass beads are blasted at high velocity to remove rust, paint and grime.
The process is tailored to the job — finer abrasives and lower pressure for delicate materials, coarser abrasives and higher pressure for robust surfaces needing deep cleaning.
Typical applications
- Construction — removing old paint and rust before coating
- Industrial machinery cleaning
- Marine — barnacles, rust and old paint on ships
- Architectural restoration of brickwork and stone
- Metal, wood and concrete surfaces
Key benefits
- Prepares surfaces for painting or coating
- Versatile across surfaces and industries
- Cost-effective for large-scale deep cleaning
- Quick and reliable turnaround
- Ensures surfaces are free of adhesion-blocking contaminants
