Abrasive Blasting: Choosing the Best Medium for Your Project
Abrasive blasting began back in the mid 19th century when the first sand blasting machine was invented in the United States. The process has been used ever since to strip rust, paint, dirt and other contaminants from a wide variety of surfaces and prepare them for coating.
Since its inception, abrasive blasting has evolved to replace the original silica sand it used with a variety of creative materials that are not only healthier for the tradespeople applying them but are equipped to clean and prepare a stunning array of surfaces for painting and other industrial processes.
