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: How long does sandblasting take?

• <div><p>Most projects take 1-3 days, depending on the surface area and complexity.</p></div>

Q: What does sand do?

• <div><p>Sand is a common sublayer for hardscape features like driveways, paver patios, and more. Most projects that involve sand require a 1-inch layer to promote evenness, drainage, and weight distribution. For further drainage, most projects have a 6-inch minimum layer of gravel beneath the sand. </p><p> </p></div>

Q: Is soda blasting the same as sandblasting?

• <div><p>Sandblasting refers to the process of cleaning a surface using compressed air and aggregate. Soda blasting is the gentlest type of this method, but it differs from sandblasting that uses mineral or other aggregate, since sodium bicarbonate breaks apart more easily than other forms of blast media and, therefore, cannot be reused.</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>
