DRY BLASTING

 Dry media blasting, as the name suggests, utilizes compressed air and abrasive to clean and strip a wide variety of surfaces. Dry blasting is preferred in most cases do to it's lower cost and quicker post blast clean-up. DRY BLASTING DOES NOT CAUSE WARPING, bad blasting techniques do. Using the correct pressure, abrasive and operator experience prevents warping and excessive substrate damage.  

WHAT KIND OF MEDIA DO YOU USE?

The most effective media for media blasting is recycled crushed glass. This media is enviromentally friendly and cheap compared to other media types such as garnet, organics, oxides and soda. We only use the harder media types when needed. This allows us to pass substantial savings on to you!

HOW DO YOU CLEAN UP AFTER BLASTING?

Dry blasting disperses the media over a wider area and is easier to dispose of directly after blasting. After blasting is complete, compressed air is used to blow off the object or area. If there is a swept pile remaining it can be disposed of in the trash since it is non-toxic. Most customers choose to clean up the area themselves to lower the project cost.

WILL BLASTING CAUSE WARPING OR DAMAGE?

Any blasting method can warp or damage surfaces if the operator does not follow proper procedures. We set our blast machine based on the surface thickness, hardness and amount of material to be removed. There are situations were blasting is NOT the best option for our customer. We will recommend other options.

MEDIA BLASTING VS POWER WASHING?

There really is no comparison between blasting and power washing. Power washing has its place as an aid to speed cleaning surfaces from dirt and light contaminates. Media blasting is used for paint stripping, corrosion removal, surface preparation, hardened material removal and many more stripping applications.  

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

Obviously, this is the question that everyone wants an easy answer to. Unfortunately, there is no formula or per hour rate to use. Each job is specific to the site, material, distance traveled, size and many more factors. In general, it comes down to time. The time required for the blaster to be running and the time needed for prep and clean up play a major role in price. Estimates are free and can usually be done with pictures and a conversation.
