| Roadhouse is branching out into the revolutionary vehicle paint and coatings removal process that is soda blasting, if you don't know what it involves here's the low down... What is Soda - Blasting
Unlike using an abrasive, like sand etc, Sodium Bicarbonate particles remove contaminants by means of the energy released when the particles explode on contact with the surface. This non-abrasive action allows it to be used on surfaces, which would be damaged by abrasive media like: aluminum, stainless steel, brick, stone, glass, fiberglass, wood, plastics, bearings, seals, hydraulic cylinders and many more.
Soda blasting also breaks down hydrocarbons, which makes it highly suitable for cleaning engines, engine parts and similar. Another major advantage is that the surface-tension of metals is not broken, which eliminates the problem of flash-rusting.there's loads more info on this website, have a look around and click on the video page and watch the some of the vids, the coke can one is a good example of how gentle it is on what ever it is your removing the coating from http://www.soda-blast.co.uk/I hope to have the system up and running in as little as 6 weeks time, watch this space for further information and a rough pricing guide. | |
