Shotblasting what is it all about?
The shot blasting process involves blasting the metal with abrasive steel delivered through a high powered 100 psi hose. The process uses controlled pressure depending on the size/delicacy of the part. Parts which have been blasted can then be plated/painted or sprayed, but for optimum resilts this should be undertaken as quickly as possible to stop corrosion. The product used for blasting is 100% recyclable, making it a cost effective methed. The excess material is gathered up by machine from the workshop floor and then cleaned using a um processor and then re used.

Sand blasting is a terminology used for the same process but using sand. This is now an illegal process as the sand, once broken down, contains silicon and this causes the lung disease silicoses. if you buy a bag of any sand now it states on the front "not to be use for sand blasting" It is illegal to sand blast.
