Sand Blasting
Sand Blasting
Our Garnet Blasting service is EPA compliant, with the benefits of less dust and no safety hazards at the equivalent production rate of silica sand. Garnet is a high quality, general purpose blasting abrasive. The abrasive substance (garnet) is propelled at a high pressure against the metal surface. This process works to remove rust, corrosion, unwanted paint and oils from the substrate, leaving behind a clean profile on which the powder coating can adhere to without any further sanding or preparation required.
Service Process
Our process involves blasting and preparing the surface to remove any existing coatings and contaminants that will compromise the quality of adhesion. Next, we prime the surface to provide an ideal base to act as a corrosion inhibitor, before curing this in the oven for approximately 1 hour. We then powder coat the surface in a colour of your choice, before again curing for quality maintenance. Southern Powder Coaters can blast products of varying capacities, including:
- Agricultural equipment
- Automotive parts
- Bicycles
- Furniture
- Motorbikes
- Structural components i.e. gates, handrails, doors
- & more!
