Shot blasting is an extremely effective method of removing dirt, rust or paint from a surface using air supplied from a compressor. Shot blasting is very forgiving to rusty metal and fibreglass both of which can be damaged by acid dipping, this makes it ideal for areas which have been repaired in the past.
Blast cleaning is an excellent method of removing paint and coatings from a variety of surface types such as brickwork, wood, iron, steel, glass, concrete, fibreglass and stone. Blasting also has the added benefit of preparing a steel surface prior to a coating being applied to ensure the correct adhesion.
Shot blasting is a very cost effective technique and uses ecologically friendly materials as opposed to using chemicals to strip coatings. Galvanising requires a strong level of adhesion for it to be effective, shot blasting provides the ideal surface for this process.
Often referred to as sand blasting it can be used in a wide variety of applications in both domestic and commercial settings. Buildings, vehicles and garden furniture are just some of the possible applications of shot blasting.
