Shot Blasting Services in Rugby
Shot blasting is used to remove dirt, paint or rust from an object or surface. This task would be very time consuming using more manual methods. Shot blasting uses compressed air and a blasting medium to completely remove contaminants from a surface. Some materials can be damaged by harsher methods of paint removal such as acid dipping, blasting is very forgiving on fibreglass and rusty metal surfaces.
Shot blasting can be used on a variety of surfaces including brickwork, iron, steel, wood, glass, concrete, fibreglass and stone to remove paint or coatings. Preparing a steel surface is made easy with shot blasting, the surface is prepared perfectly ready for any coatings which need to be applied. Due to this preparation beforehand, the correct amount of adhesion occurs.

Efficient Preparation
Saving time is crucial for any business along with sticking to any budget requirements. Shot blasting offers this and uses eco friendly materials rather than chemicals. Protecting steel from the elements requires some form of coating, such as industrial painting. A strong level of adhesion is required for the coating to be effective, a shot blasted surface provides this.

Domestic & Commercial Shot Blasting in Rugby
An alternative, often used, name for shot blasting is sand blasting. Both the commercial and domestic sectors make use of this technique and both offer a wide variety of applications. Vehicles, buildings and garden furniture are just some of the possible applications of shot blasting.
What is the Difference Between Shot Blasting and Sandblasting?
Sand blasting as a term has been replaced by shot blasting in modern day industry. Sand can be very difficult to work with compared to more modern blasting media. Modern blasting media is easier to use and offers less safety concerns when being used.
Years gone by sand used to be the go to material for any abrasive blasting work, this was due to how readily available it was. Sand is a health hazard when inhaled, so it creates a big challenge when used in industry from a health and safety point.
Sand has been superseded by modern abrasives which offer more performance and a wider range of uses across multiple industries. These abrasives are a more viable option within modern industry as they are more compliant with health and safety standards.
