Shot Blast Cleaning/Grit Blast or sometimes know as shot blasting is used for cleaning any metal surface as to be free from rust, grease and paint, usually in preparation for Powder Coating or Galvanizing. We can provide this service as part of the restoration process for your steel work so long as the surface is in a good enough condition.
Shot blasting ensures the proper removal of previous paint coatings, rust, and any grease to make the metal surface completely bare. Galvanizing or powder coating on any surface other than bare is never durable.
How does it work?
Shot blasting essentially involves firing minute particles to erode or etch away surface contamination that exists on the steel surface.
On contaminated steel, without having shot blasted, when reapplying either powder coating or wet spraying the finished quality of the work would be diminished.
