When is sandblasting useful?

• <div><p>Sandblasting is useful when you need to strip material off a hard surface. Common reasons to sandblast are to remove paint, rust, or get a surface ready for a new material. You aren’t limited to surfaces like walls either—you can sandblast rusted tools, bicycle frames, cement, bricks, and many others. If what you’re sandblasting is still structurally sound, sandblasting can be a fast and inexpensive way to revive the original material. </p></div>

Q: Is soda blasting better than sandblasting?

• <div><p>Because these two systems have different applications, there is no definitive answer to which is better. When working with sturdy materials, sandblasting is cheaper and faster, but more delicate projects require soda blasting. Before choosing either option, consider your specific needs, particularly your ultimate goal (cleaning, removing rust, prepping for painting, etc.), the material, and your budget.</p></div>

Q: What factors affect sandblasting costs?

• <div><p>Costs depend on surface material, labor, debris disposal, and the type of blasting media used.</p></div>

Q: Which costs more: soda blasting or sandblasting?

• <div><p>Soda-blasting systems are slightly more expensive than sandblasting systems. To soda blast, you&rsquo;ll need to spend a few hundred dollars for a blast hose and nozzle, a compressed air supply, a blast generator, a moisture decontamination system, and sodium bicarbonate media, a recurring cost because the powder is not reusable. To start with sandblasting, you will need to spend upwards of $30 for a blast pot, a blast gun, an air compressor, and sandblasting media, many of which are recyclable&mdash;further reducing the cost. The total cost for either will depend on the size of the system.</p></div>

Q: Will sandblasting remove paint?

• <div><p>Sandblasting is a common method for removing paint. It works great if the underlying material is tough. This is because you can then use more abrasive sandblast materials, making the paint removal process much faster and less expensive. If you plan on removing many layers of paint on smooth surfaces, you&rsquo;ll need to be more careful about which materials you choose to use to sandblast. </p></div>

Outstanding service all the way around. When Jonathan was finished with the carpet cleaning, the heavily soiled foot traffic areas were just as clean as the rest of the carpet. This company is very easy to work with and performs quality work. I highly recommend Pro Care Cleaning.
