Media Blasting
What Is Media Blasting?
Media blasting is a powerful and versatile method for preparing, cleaning, and restoring a wide range of surfaces. Using pressurized air, we safely and efficiently remove tough coatings, rust, corrosion, and grime to ensure the surface meets your exact specifications.
We believe that every project deserves a unique approach. That’s why our process begins with careful planning. We work closely with you to understand your specific needs and project requirements, ensuring every detail is covered.
Our team is equipped to meet any project specification. We’re able to use a wide variety of blast media, from highly abrasive options like iron silicate sand to gentle, eco-friendly materials such as dry ice, corn husk, soda, or recycled glass. This tailored approach leaves your surface perfectly prepared for the next step, whether it’s repainting, non-destructive examination (NDE) testing, or simple restoration.
Worried about dust? Our wet blasting service is the perfect solution. By introducing a controlled mist during the blasting process, we effectively suppress dust, making it an excellent choice for projects in sensitive or enclosed environments.
Media Blasting Applications:
- Cleaning: Highly effective at eliminating rust and corrosion from metal surfaces on large structures like bridges, industrial equipment, or marine vessels.
- Painting & Coatings: Standard method for preparing surfaces before painting, powder coating, or applying other finishes.
- Welding & Bonding: Prepare metal surfaces for welding by removing impurities and creating a clean, uniform surface.
- Mould & Fire Restoration: Remove soot from fire-damaged structures and clean mould and mildew from surfaces like wood.
- Historic & Antique Restoration: Gentle media can be used to clean and restore delicate surfaces without damaging the underlying material.
- Deburring and Peening: Remove burrs and sharp edges from manufactured parts.
