What Is Sandblasting?
Sandblasting is a process that uses high-pressure air and abrasive material (like sand or other tiny particles) to clean, smooth, or shape a surface. It’s kind of like using a pressure washer—but instead of water, we use grit to scrub away old paint, rust, or buildup.
Why Choose Sandblasting?
Here are some of the biggest benefits of sandblasting:
- Rust Removal: Perfect for cleaning old or rusted steel.
- Paint Prep: Creates a clean surface for painting or coating.
- Long-Lasting Results: Helps paint and protective coatings stick better and last longer.
- Fast and Effective: Much quicker than hand sanding or scraping.
Common Uses for Sandblasting
We use sandblasting on many kinds of jobs, including:
- Steel beams and frames
- Fences, gates, and railings
- Heavy equipment and machinery
- Trailers and metal vehicles
- Metal signs and decorative pieces
If it’s made of metal and needs cleaning or prep work, we can help.
What Materials Can Be Sandblasted?
At Steel Specialties, we mostly sandblast steel and other metals. But sandblasting can also work on:
- Aluminum
- Iron
- Stainless steel
- Concrete (in some cases)
We’ll help you figure out if your project is a good fit for sandblasting.
Things to Consider Before Sandblasting
Before we start, there are a few things to think about:
- Material Type: Not all surfaces can handle sandblasting.
- Coating Type: Some paints or coatings may require special removal methods.

No. When done correctly by trained professionals, sandblasting cleans the surface without causing damage. We adjust the pressure and materials for each job.
