Shot Blasting Birmingham

Shot blasting is often used as an effective method of removing dirt, paint or rust from an object using compressed air and a blasting medium. This method of blasting is very forgiving on rusty metal and fibreglass both of which can be damaged by acid dipping, that is why it’s popular for areas which have been repaired in the past. Shot blasting is an effective method of removing coatings and paint from a variety of surface types such as brickwork, wood, iron, steel, glass, concrete, fibreglass and stone. An added benefit of blasting is how it prepares a steel surface prior to blasting. This ensures when a coating is applied, the correct amount of adhesion occurs. If you’re looking for a very cost and time effective technique which uses ecologically friendly materials then look no further than shot blasting. Galvanising is used to protect steel from the elements but this process requires a strong level of adhesion for it to be effective. A shot blasted surface provides this level of adhesion.
