Sandblasting, bead blasting or abrasive blasting. Are these all the same thing? The short answer is yes! For years, sandblasting was the same as abrasive blasting as the abrasive of choice was mainly sand. Now, new materials have replaced sand as preferred abrasives.
Abrasive blasting services use high pressure air, mixed with fine abrasive particles to quickly remove paint, rust, corrosion, dirt and other debris from different surfaces. Sand is no longer the recommended abrasive as it is a health concern. Sand contains silica, which can cause respiratory issues. Sand is also quite wet, and has a lot of impurities which can cause problems with the abrasive blaster.
When choosing the right abrasive for the job – size, hardness and sharpness are all factors that come into play. Coal slag, steel grit, glass beads, walnut shells, corn cob and plastic grit are all common materials that suit different types of surfaces and tasks.
