Read on to learn more about the media blasting process, including its benefits and the types of media blasting available.
What Is Media Blasting?
Our media blasting services use a powered blast gun that contains abrasive blasting media. The gun is packed with pressurized air, which produces enough power to shoot out thousands of tiny media particles at a force that can remove paint coatings, graffiti, and corrosion. Media blasting is predominantly used in industrial and commercial restoration or surface preparation jobs, though we are available for residential service, too.
Media blasting is capable of stripping paint without any damage to the base material. It can also be used to smooth out the roughest coatings or materials.
At Elite Blasting and Coatings, we combine the best PSI and media for the safest and most effective abrasive blasting service. We guarantee a clean and prepared surface, ensuring optimal coating adhesion for maximum project satisfaction.
Types of Media Blasting
There are a number of types of media blasting available today. For our media blasting services, we predominantly use the following types:
Bead Blasting
Bead blasting typically uses abrasive metal as the media in the blast gun. This process can be used to clean and smooth a solid surface and proves beneficial in paint and rust removal, and removal of oxidation residue.
Dustless Blasting
Dustless blasting is a safe, environmentally-friendly method of surface preparation that is particularly useful when carrying out finer jobs, such as polishing brass, aluminum, copper, and stainless steel.
Soda Blasting
The last of our media blasting methods is a superior process for paint removal that won't damage the underlying surface. Unlike sand, this cleaning and stripping process can also be used to remove contaminants.
