AUTOMOTIVE PARTS
Sandblasting automotive parts is an essential process for cleaning, restoring, and preparing metal components like engine parts, brackets, and suspension pieces. It effectively removes rust, grease, old paint, and other surface contaminants, leaving a clean, etched surface ideal for painting or powder coating.
Commonly used blasting media include crushed glass, aluminum oxide, and glass beads—each chosen based on the part’s material and required finish. For delicate components, gentler abrasives like glass beads are preferred, while tougher parts may benefit from more aggressive media like aluminum oxide.
ALLOY WHEELS
Sandblasting alloy wheels is a highly effective method for removing old paint, corrosion, and surface imperfections, restoring them to a clean, bare metal finish. This process prepares the wheels for refinishing or powder coating, ensuring better adhesion and a longer-lasting result.
Typically, fine-grade media such as crushed glass, aluminum oxide, or garnet is used, as these abrasives are aggressive enough to clean thoroughly without damaging the alloy surface. The choice of media depends on the desired finish and the condition of the wheels.
INDUSTRIAL CONPONENTS
Sandblasting industrial components is a reliable method for cleaning and preparing metal surfaces exposed to heavy use, wear, and corrosion. This process removes rust, scale, old coatings, and other contaminants, ensuring components are ready for inspection, coating, or reuse.
Depending on the material and level of cleaning required, media such as steel grit, aluminum oxide, or garnet is commonly used. These abrasives offer the strength needed to handle large or heavily corroded parts while providing a consistent, high-quality surface finish.
PLASTICS
Sandblasting plastics requires a delicate approach to avoid warping or damaging the surface. It’s commonly used for cleaning, surface texturing, or paint removal on durable plastic components.
Since plastics are softer than metals, gentler media such as plastic beads, sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), or walnut shell is used. These abrasives effectively clean or etch the surface without causing abrasion damage, making them ideal for sensitive or lightweight plastic parts in automotive, aerospace, or manufacturing applications.
