Preparation / Chemical Stripping

We are able to strip paint and coatings, remove rust and carbon, de-grease, de-scale and de-bur. In addition it effectively removes rust and breaks down filler without attacking the surface of the mild steel in any way. After the contaminants are removed the shell is then completely passivated and neutralised.

Shot Blasting

Steel shot blasting is the most widely used process for cleaning, stripping and improving a metal surface.

The grade or size of steel shot will determine the ultimate finish achieved on the surface of the metal.

The round ball shape of the steel shot produces a clean, smooth and polished surface through a peening action created by the acceleration of the shot.

In a peening application, steel shot is also used to impart shot blastingcompressive strength to torque or load bearing metal parts such as crankshafts, engine turbine blades and heavy-duty springs.

We can Shot Blast a variety of weights and sizes, please call or email for information and prices.
