The VersiTile World of Media Blasting
Media blasting, also known as abrasive blasting or sandblasting, is a process used to clean, strip, or etch a surface by propelling abrasive media against it at high pressure. The abrasive media can include materials such as sand, glass beads, aluminum oxide, steel grit, or walnut shells, depending on the specific application and desired outcome.
The process typically involves a specialized blasting machine that pressurizes the abrasive media and directs it through a nozzle onto the surface being treated. The force of the abrasive particles hitting the surface removes contaminants, old paint, rust, scale, or other unwanted substances, leaving behind a clean surface.
Media blasting is commonly used in various industries, including automotive, manufacturing, construction, and restoration. It can be used to prepare surfaces for painting or coating, to clean equipment and machinery, or to restore old or corroded surfaces to their original condition.

THE SIGNIFICANCE OF MEDIA BLASTING BEFORE POWDER COATING
Media blasting is a crucial preparatory step undertaken before powder coating for several reasons. Firstly, it serves to thoroughly clean the substrate by removing contaminants, rust, and old paint, ensuring a pristine surface. Secondly, media blasting creates a textured profile on the surface, enhancing the adhesion of the powder coating and reducing the likelihood of issues such as chipping or flaking. Moreover, it improves the durability and longevity of the powder coating by eliminating existing corrosion and imperfections.
Additionally, media blasting promotes a consistent finish by creating a uniform surface texture, resulting in a smooth and flawless appearance for the final product. Overall, media blasting plays a vital role in ensuring the success and longevity of powder-coated surfaces by providing optimal adhesion, durability, and finish quality.
