In house sandblasting and stripping

We offer full service in-house sandblasting and burn-off stripping.

Capabilities:

• Large Blast Room – Our sandblast room is 30′ long by 12′ wide. From boat trailers to small parts we can blast it all.
• State of the Art Blast System – 1200 lb. self recovering pressurized blast system and operators outfitted with air conditioned, oxygen supplied blast suits, allow our blasters to work continuously in a safe and comfortable manner, so that they can concentrate on producing high quality workmanship.
• Quick Turn-Around – We blast and coat 18 hours a day to serve our customers most urgent needs.

Key Benefits:

• Clean Metal – Once your product has been processed through our sandblast system you can be assured that only clean metal will be left on the surface. This is also an optimal surface finish to accept powder coating.
• In-House – Because the work is performed in-house we have control over the lead time, quality standard, as well as the option of integrating the process with powder coating to insure a long lasting finish.
• Finishers Mentality – As a metal finisher we are sensitive to the cosmetic requirements of abrasive blast media. We know what it takes to clean the metal without overly blasting the surface.
• Environmentally Sound – Our state of the art sand recovery system ensures the most efficient use of our media to minimize waste and consequently reduce environmental impact. Our burn-off oven incinerates paint and other coatings including powder in a manner that has very little exhaust.
• Pick-up and Delivery

We offer pick-up and delivery services to the Portland/Vancouver area.
