Removing Rust, Paint & Build-Up with High-Performance Blasting

Abrasive blasting is a time-tested, high-media surface preparation method commonly used in industrial and open-air environments. This process uses blast media like garnet, coal slag, and steel grit or shot to remove coatings, rust, scale, and contaminants from surfaces in preparation for painting or coating.

At JC Toland, we apply abrasive blasting techniques that align with NACE and SSPC standards, ensuring the right blast profile and finish for your project. While we often use our advanced EcoQuip 2 vapor blasting system for dust-sensitive jobs, conventional abrasive blasting remains the preferred method for many industrial applications.

We tailor our blast media selection to the needs of each surface:

  • Garnet: Low dust, high hardness, ideal for precise jobs
  • Coal Slag: Aggressive, cost-effective, great for heavy removal
  • Steel Grit/Shot: Recyclable media for structural steel and equipment
