SHOT BLASTING

Shot blasting strips a thin layer of concrete to reveal a mechanical profile that will improve bonding for new floor surfaces. This technique blasts the concrete surface with steel shot (i.e., small steel balls) at a high velocity. Shot blasting removes contamination, as well as laitance (soft concrete), which could prevent coatings or other new surfaces from adhering properly.

BEST USES

  • Concrete Removal >1/8″

  • Coating removal

  • Concrete Surface Prep

PROS

  • Cost-effective

  • Dust-free

  • A dry process which allows for immediate application of coatings

  • Suitable for large and small areas

  • Delivers high production rates
