Functions of Sandblasting
Surface Cleaning
Sandblasting is an efficient method for removing dirt, grease, oil, rust, and old paint from surfaces. It restores the material to a clean, smooth state, making it ideal for pre-treatment before coatings or finishes.
Surface Preparation for Coating
Sandblasting creates a rough texture on surfaces, improving the adhesion of paints, primers, and other coatings. This ensures a stronger bond and longer-lasting finish, preventing peeling or chipping over time.
Surface Texturing
By adjusting the pressure and abrasive material, sandblasting can achieve specific textures on surfaces. This is useful in applications like creating non-slip surfaces, decorative finishes, or enhancing grip.
Rust Removal
Sandblasting is highly effective at removing rust from metal surfaces, restoring the material’s integrity. This prevents further corrosion and ensures a clean foundation for further treatment.
Smoothing Rough Surfaces
Sandblasting can smooth rough or uneven surfaces, providing a polished finish. It’s often used on metal, stone, or concrete to create a smooth, uniform surface before coating or polishing.
Restoration and Refinishing
Sandblasting can be used to restore the original look of worn or aged materials, such as old metal or stone. It removes surface imperfections and prepares the material for refinishing or re-coating, giving it a renewed appearance.

| Sandblasting with Ceramic Media | Moderate | High ($$$) | Delicate part cleaning, automotive, aerospace, and precision finishing |
While sandblasting is effective on many surfaces, it’s essential to choose the right abrasive and pressure settings to avoid damaging delicate materials.
The duration of sandblasting depends on the size of the material, the complexity of the surface, and the type of abrasive used, but it typically ranges from a few minutes to several hours.
