Although practically any surface can be bead blasted, here at Blastworks we work exclusively with stainless steel and aluminium to prevent any potential contamination to your metals.
When it comes to blasting there are a wide variety of abrasives to choose from. Glass bead blasting produces a much smoother and brighter finish than angular abrasives. There is no dimensional change to the metal surface, no embedded contaminates or residue left behind and the process smooths away any surface defects. Glass bead blasting can also improve corrosion resistance.
Scratches and imperfections erased.
Welding and heat discolouration removed.
Eliminate porosity in hygienic products to lessen the risk of bacteria residing.
Ultimately creating an overall, long lasting, even finish.
Different abrasives give different finish. At Blast works we exclusively use glass beads – I think you can see why!
