Coating Services
Abrasive Blasting and Painting
Steels and other metals are used extensively in construction and many manufacturing industries. They need protection from corrosion to preserve structural integrity and extend their life spans. The surfaces of these materials must be meticulously cleaned and prepared for the application of protective coatings. TecRadon provides flawless Abrasive blasting and painting services and has established itself as the preferred partner for surface cleaning and preparation in most applications.
Abrasive blasting is a treatment process whereby an abrasive medium is propelled against a surface at high pressure using blasting nozzles powered by compressed air. This procedure strips the surface clean of dirt, debris, surface coatings and rust, without damaging the underlying material.
The process is widely used in industry for a range of applications:
- Removing rust, scale or existing coatings
- Finishing of precision parts
- Removing mold flash from plastic components
- Providing a cosmetic matte finish on consumer products
- Surface preparation prior to coating, painting or bonding
The abrasive medium chosen for a particular application depends on the surface finish required. Common blasting abrasives include:
- Sand
- Steel shot or grit
- Black beauty
- Glass bead or crushed glass
- Aluminum oxide
- Silicon carbide
- Coconut or walnut shell
- Copper slag
- Plastic
It is estimated that up to 80 percent of all premature coating failures are caused by inefficient or inadequate surface preparation. Our state-of-the-art abrasive blasting technology includes facilities for effective climate control to ensure ideal conditions for surface preparation before coating.
Abrasive blasting is the most efficient and cost-effective method of surface cleaning and preparation for coating. It holds a number of critical advantages over chemical cleaning, including the fact that it can be conducted in a controlled environment. Abrasive blasting, followed by surface coating, ensures the integrity of the underlying material and greatly reduces the need to undergo the costly exercise of re-cleaning and recoating.
