CREATING THE SMOOTHEST, MOST DURABLE FINISH

WHAT IS SANDBLASTING?

Sandblasting (aka abrasive blasting) is a finishing method that helps to even out or add texture to a product’s exterior. Not only is it a great way to take off paint or rust, but it’s also helpful to get a product’s exterior ready for painting or powder coating.

How do we perform sandblasting in Salem, OR? First, we spray sand on a product, and once the sand hits the destination, it creates a polished, pristine finish. Think of it like sandpaper. When sand reaches a surface, the texture removes anything left on the surface that shouldn’t be there. This helps to level things out and create the finish you desire.

The first thing we’ll do is insert sand into our sandblasting machine. Next, we’ll hook the machine up to an air compressor, which will release the sand at a rate of up to over 100 pounds per square inch. This will get your product’s exterior one step closer to perfection. Interested in sandblasting services? Contact us today for a free quote!

BENEFITS OF SANDBLASTING

Sandblasting makes the process of preparing a product for powder coating a whole lot easier. Here are some other reasons to try sandblasting in Salem:

QUICK COMPLETION

If you need a product smoothed out quickly, sandblasting is the way to go. There are no hazardous chemicals or intense cleaning methods required, even for the toughest machinery. While the total time varies based on the product size, most sandblasting jobs last no more than a few hours.

HELPS PRODUCTS LAST LONGER

Once your product’s surface is free and clear of rust, oil, debris, and other elements that could cause deterioration, your product will likely have a stronger exterior and higher lifespan. In some cases, we have found that sandblasting can even help reverse or fix any damage that has been done to a surface, specifically rust.

ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS

Sandblasting helps protect the environment by incorporating toxin-free materials, such as glass beads. (These materials can be reused for decreased waste.) Utilizing only eco-friendly, non-hazardous materials also keeps our team safe by preventing us from breathing in harmful chemicals.

COMPATIBLE WITH MULTIPLE MATERIALS

You can sandblast a variety of products and materials, including metal, aluminum, silver, glass, rock, or wood. It’s used for multiple products in the commercial, residential, and industrial sectors. Not sure if you can sandblast your product? Reach out to our team in Salem, OR. We can help!
