Understanding Plastic Blast Media

by | Sep 27, 2022 | Sandblasting

Plastic blast media is an eco-friendly abrasive that can be used in paint removal and industrial cleaning processes. Plastic blast media efficiently strips coatings, paints, powder coatings, epoxies, and primers from hard metals, aluminum, fiberglass, composites, plastics, brass, and steel.

Choosing plastic blast media is an effective technique that prevents damage to the substrate. Therefore, the method combined with the media provides a favorable alternative to chemical stripping and hard abrasives. Plastic blast media can be reused several times, which provides an excellent cost advantage. Some plastic blast media can also be recycled.

Plastic Blast Media Applications

Plastic blast media is used commonly to remove the paint from airplanes, boats, cars, trains, trucks, and helicopters. It is also used to clean parts and components.

Plastic blast media is effective in the stripping of all metal types. It can efficiently remove cured powder coating from a surface without causing any damage to the substrate.

Paint is removed from the surface using plastic media, which prepares the surface for re-painting. The paint can be removed completely from a wide range of surfaces, such as rubber, composites, aluminum, fiberglass, and steel. This technique is far more cost and time effective than the other methods available for removing paint.

While it is known plastic blast media can be used in a wide variety of restoration projects, plastic blast media can also be used in the manufacturing of new parts and machinery.

When your project calls for a softer blasting media to protect the delicate substrate of your materials, the best option is plastic blast media. This blasting media is available in a range of types and sizes. Do your homework to ensure you are using the blasting media that is right for the material that you are using and the results that you want to achieve.
