Sandblasting

Sandblasting

Sandblasting is a special cleaning method used to primate a surface in order to apply the paint or a sealant. Before painting the surface, you have to remove all the dust, insects, bubbles or previous paint. Sandblasting makes the surface smooth, so it can be painted easily, but it is not only the cleaning method. It is used  also for decorating the glass. It is used for etching and carving the glass. You need to use the proper sandblast equipment for the work.

To setup the sandblasting, you have to use usually three parts: abrasive, an air compressor and the sandblaster nozzle.  A sandblast equipment setup usually consists of three different parts: the abrasive itself, an air compressor, and a blaster nozzle. There is wet and dry sandblasting. Wet sandblasting is used for removing a pain or old stucco from a surfacewhole dry is usually not allowed, except in special circumstances. It has to be permitted by the city authorities.
