Common Uses For Dustless Blasting
Commercial | Residential | Multi-Family
It isn't always clear what dustless blasting can be used for. Here is a small, but common list for use cases where dustless blasting is the preferred choice to just power washing.
Graffiti
Removing graffiti from surfaces: Graffiti removal can be a difficult and time-consuming task, but dustless blasting provides a fast and effective solution. It can remove graffiti from a wide range of surfaces, including concrete, brick, and stone, without causing damage to the underlying surface. Additionally, it generates less dust and debris, making it a safer and healthier option for workers and the environment.

Other Use Cases
Removing paint and rust from automotive surfaces: Dustless blasting is a preferred method for removing paint and rust from automotive surfaces because it is faster and more efficient than traditional sandblasting methods. It can remove multiple layers of paint and rust without causing damage to the underlying surface, and it generates less dust and debris, making it a safer and healthier option for workers and the environment.
Cleaning and restoring brick and stone surfaces: Dustless blasting can remove years of dirt, grime, and other contaminants from brick and stone surfaces, revealing the original surface and restoring it to its former glory. It can also remove paint and other coatings from these surfaces without causing damage, making it a versatile and effective solution for brick and stone restoration.
Preparing metal surfaces for painting or powder coating: Dustless blasting can remove rust, paint, and other contaminants from metal surfaces, preparing them for painting or powder coating. It creates a surface texture that allows for better adhesion of coatings and finishes, resulting in a longer-lasting and more durable finish.
Cleaning and restoring wood surfaces: Dustless blasting can remove old finishes, paint, and other contaminants from wood surfaces, restoring their natural beauty and preparing them for refinishing. It can also remove stains and discolorations from wood surfaces without causing damage, making it a safe and effective solution for wood restoration.
Removing contaminants from boats and marine vessels: Dustless blasting can remove barnacles, paint, and other contaminants from boats and other marine vessels without causing damage to the underlying surface. It is a faster and more efficient method than traditional sandblasting methods, and it generates less dust and debris, making it a safer and healthier option for workers and the environment.
Removing scale and rust from pipes and other equipment in the oil and gas industry: Dustless blasting is a preferred solution for removing scale and rust from pipes and other equipment in the oil and gas industry because it is faster and more efficient than traditional sandblasting methods. It can remove scale and rust from metal surfaces without causing damage, and it generates less dust and debris, making it a safer and healthier option for workers and the environment.
Preparing surfaces in the food processing industry: Dustless blasting can be used to clean and prepare surfaces in the food processing industry, such as stainless steel equipment and conveyor belts, for sanitation. It is a safer and more efficient option than traditional cleaning methods, and it generates less dust and debris, making it a safer and healthier option for workers and the environment.
Cleaning and restoring surfaces in the aerospace industry: Dustless blasting can be used to clean and restore surfaces in the aerospace industry, such as aircraft parts and components. It can remove paint, rust, and other contaminants from metal surfaces without causing damage, and it generates less dust and debris, making it a safer and healthier option for workers and the environment.
Removing paint and rust from metal fences and gates: Dustless blasting is a fast and efficient method for removing paint and rust from metal fences and gates. It can remove multiple layers of paint and rust without causing damage to the underlying metal, resulting in a smooth and even finish.
Removing grime and stains from concrete driveways and sidewalks: Dustless blasting can quickly and effectively remove grime and stains from concrete driveways and sidewalks, restoring them to their original appearance. It can also remove old coatings and finishes, preparing the surface for new coatings or finishes.
Cleaning and restoring pool surfaces: Dustless blasting can remove calcium buildup and other contaminants from pool surfaces, preparing them for refinishing or resurfacing. It can also remove old coatings and finishes, allowing for better adhesion of new coatings and finishes.
Removing paint and coatings from wood decks and fences: Dustless blasting can remove paint and other coatings from wood decks and fences without causing damage to the underlying wood. It can also remove stains and discolorations, restoring the natural beauty of the wood.
Preparing surfaces for commercial and industrial painting: Dustless blasting can be used to prepare surfaces for commercial and industrial painting, including warehouses, factories, and other industrial buildings. It can remove old coatings, paint, and rust from metal surfaces, preparing them for new coatings and finishes.
Removing contaminants from heavy equipment: Dustless blasting can remove contaminants from heavy equipment, such as bulldozers, cranes, and excavators, preparing them for maintenance or repairs. It can remove paint, rust, and other contaminants without causing damage to the underlying metal.
Removing contaminants from railroad equipment: Dustless blasting can remove contaminants from railroad equipment, such as locomotives and railcars. It can remove paint, rust, and other contaminants without causing damage to the underlying metal.
Removing coatings and finishes from furniture: Dustless blasting can remove coatings and finishes from furniture without causing damage to the underlying wood. It can also remove stains and discolorations, restoring the natural beauty of the wood.
Cleaning and restoring historical landmarks: Dustless blasting can be used to clean and restore historical landmarks, such as statues, monuments, and buildings. It can remove years of dirt and grime from stone, concrete, and metal surfaces, revealing the original beauty of the landmark.
