Blackburn vapour blasting

Vapour Blasting

Vapor blasting is a less aggressive alternative to dry media or sand blasting, and it has several advantages, including:

  • Smoother finish: Vapor blasting provides a smoother finish than dry blasting. 

  • Suitable for vulnerable surfaces: Vapor blasting uses a relatively low force, which makes it suitable for preparing more vulnerable surfaces. 

  • Reduced dust: The water in the slurry suppresses dust, making the process cleaner and more environmentally friendly. 

  • Gentle on surfaces: The water acts as a lubricant, reducing friction and heat generated during the blasting process. 

Vapor blasting is often used to remove dirt, contaminants, rust, corrosion, and old paint from a wide range of surfaces, including engine blocks, cylinder heads, gearbox cases, sumps and covers, and suspension and chassis components.

Shot Blasting 

Shot blasting is a surface preparation technique that involves the use of high-velocity steel shots or grit to clean, smooth, or shape a surface.

 

This process is commonly used in metalworking to remove rust, scale, and other contaminants from surfaces, making it ideal for preparing metal parts for painting or coating.

 

Shot blasting can also enhance the surface texture, improve adhesion for coatings, and increase fatigue resistance in components.

 

The process is efficient and can be applied to various materials, making it a popular choice in industries such as manufacturing, automotive, and construction.
