Shot blasting is a process whereby small metal beads are fired at high speeds onto the concrete surface below and then sucked back up into the same machine. The impact of these beads causes the surface of the floor to break up and come away (to a depth between 0.5 and 2mm), exposing a fresh, unsealed surface. Shot Blasting is typically used to:

 

     • Make a surface course for line marking, allowing for a greater chemical
       bond between line marking paint and the ground, increasing its
       lifespan.

     • Completely remove existing lines from the ground

 

Shot blasting isn't always essential for line marking but is the preferred preparation method by most paint manufacturers. To arrange a free quote or site visit, contact us on 1300 76 44 77.
