    What is shot blasting?

    Shot blasting is a cleaning method capable of removing dirt, graffiti, paint and rust from a wide range of surface types. Compressed air and an abrasive blasting media is used in the technique. A wide range of industries and applications are covered with shot blasting anything from industrial to domestic to a whole building or just a car.

    Sand Blasting vs Shot Blasting

    Shot blasting is still often referred to as sand blasting even though it was actually made illegal in the UK in 1999. The reason behind this is due to the risk of Silicosis, a lung disease which can be fatal caused by silica dust particles in sand. Shot blasting or grit blasting has replaced sand and uses substitute materials such as glass or steel which poses no silica risk.

    What can shot blasting be used for?

    Metal still remains as one of the most popular materials to be shot blasted. As most metals have a hard surface, shot blasting is able to remove the top layer of material without causing any permanent damage.

    Concrete is another popular material which is regularly shot blasted and is widely used in the building industry. Warehouse flooring is where this is commonly used to clean the surface ready for the application of paint or a coating. 

    Our Coventry or London based teams are able to carry out shot blasting at either our premises or your business.
