Grit Blasting
We provide grit blasting option to remove rust, paint and other contaminants in order to clean surfaces of metals i.e. exterior or interior of ships… This method involves the continuous battering of the surface using abrasive particles such as steel grit and shot or copper slag, which are propelled through conveying hoses by compressed air.
During this process, rust is removed from the metal surface. After the blasting process, compressed air is blown onto the surface so that it is free from dust or rust. The blasting process has been widely accepted in removing mill scale, rust, paint and other contaminants due to its effectiveness in cleaning metals. For new build vessels, grit blasting is usually used to provide a surface profile that is better suited for the subsequent painting process.
