What is Vapor Abrasive Blasting?

Vapor abrasive blasting is a powerful, advanced cleaning method that combines the best features of dry abrasive blasting and wet blasting. The process involves propelling a mixture of water and abrasive materials under high pressure to clean surfaces, remove contaminants, or prepare surfaces for painting and coating. This unique process creates less dust, reduces the amount of abrasive needed, and minimizes the impact on the environment compared to traditional dry blasting techniques.

Key Benefits:

  • Reduced Dust: Vapor blasting uses water to suppress dust, making it safer for operators and the surrounding environment.
  • Eco-Friendly: The use of water and natural abrasives reduces the environmental impact of your cleaning operations.
  • Enhanced Surface Preparation: The combination of water and abrasives helps to remove contaminants and prepare surfaces for painting, coating, or further processing.
  • Versatile Applications: Vapor blasting is suitable for a wide range of surfaces, including metal, concrete, glass, and more.
  • Faster Cleanup: The water used in vapor abrasive blasting helps remove debris and particles during the process, leaving behind a cleaner surface and reducing post-blasting cleanup time.
