Blast Cleaning
Our blast cleaning removes paint, rust, and dirt from metals, brickwork, and wood using precision techniques. This cost-effective method prepares surfaces for re-coating or restoration. Operators ensure optimal finishes for industrial and domestic items.
Vapour Blasting
Vapour blasting eliminates dust hazards while cleaning large structures or enclosed spaces. Ideal for sensitive environments, it combines water and abrasives to safely strip coatings without explosion risks or airborne contaminants.
Soda Blasting
Soda blasting gently removes coatings from delicate items like garden furniture using low pressure. This chemical-free method preserves surfaces while effectively stripping paint or grime, suitable for fragile materials.
Bead Blasting
Bead blasting polishes metals and light items like silverware without chemicals. Using recycled glass media, it achieves smooth finishes for food industry equipment and decorative pieces through non-abrasive impact.
Surface Preparation
We prepare surfaces to SA 2.5 standards for recoating, removing rust, oil, and old finishes. Our operators ensure thorough cleaning to meet industrial specifications, guaranteeing adhesion for new protective coatings.
