Uses and Applications

Shotblasting has a wide variety of potential uses:

		The largest use for shotblasting is to prepare a surface for re-coating using paints, varnish or powder coatings.
		Often used on hardwoods to stress or clean them. This will give the wood an antique effect. Oak framed buildings are commonly given this treatment.
		Used on metal where heavy rust is present and has started to penetrate the metal. Shotblasting will clean and also remove all rust, thus preventing any rust re-appearing through the new topcoat.
		Used on brickwork, concrete or stone to remove weathering effects or graffiti.
