Sandblasting, also referred to as abrasive blasting, is a surface cleaning and preparation process that uses pressurized air to propel abrasive particles at high speeds. These particles effectively cut through rust, corrosion, paint, and other tough coatings on metal...
Sandblasting is traditionally used to remove corrosion, contaminants and coatings but can also serve other purposes. This technique is also a versatile and effective glass etching method with various artistic and practical possibilities. Sandblasted glass looks...
Whether you need to remove rust or corrosion or prepare a hard surface for paint, the type of blasting material you use in sandblasting projects can affect the results. Beyond affecting the surface condition and profile, the wrong blasting material can also impact...
Sandblasting, or abrasive blasting, requires high-pressure equipment to blast abrasive media particles onto a surface or substrate. Businesses across industries use abrasive media blasting for applications such as surface preparation, corrosion removal, rust removal,...
Workers started blasting with silica sand more than 100 years ago. It was a popular abrasive media for many applications due to its availability, particle size and effectiveness on various substrates. However, research has revealed that silica sand is dangerous to...
