Shotblast Southwest Inc. provides the proper surface profiles.

Finer profiles produced by finer shot are ideal for retention on new thin-coat epoxy or urethane film, usually applied to 8-10 mil. thickness

Use of coarse steel shot produces the deeper profile usually recommended for topping and overlaymment coatings.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

-A dry process permitting immediate installation of coatings with no moisture to affect coating adhesion.

-NO fumes.

-NO pollution or dust.

-Little or no interference to your operation.

-Ideal surface texture for mechanical bonding of coatings.

-Etching of slippery surface where coatings are not specified.

-This system will remove most coatings including elastomeric urethane.


The shotblasting system incorporates the high performance airless centrifugal wheel for propelling blast media in a controlled pattern and direction. Metal abrasive thrown by the rapidly rotating blast wheel scours the concrete surface and rebounds aling with removed contaminants into a recovery chamber. Pulverized abrasive, dust and contaminants are removed by a seperate dust collector. Very little abrasive is lost and the usable media is returned to the storage hopper for recirculation by the blast wheel.
