If you were to work in metal industries or in the military bases of the Ordnance Corps, you probably saw sand blasting in action. If not, this article will explain to you in great detail exactly what sand blasting is and how it is done, along with all its benefits.

What is Sand Blasting and why is it necessary?

Sand blasting is actually a cleaning operation. True, it sounds a bit strange and true that extrusion sounds like a dirty thing, but in some situations sand can be the only means of cleaning and renewing certain surfaces and products. Because the grains of sand are particularly small, they can enter under certain layers that already peel off, such as an old paint layer or rust, and so they spin it off and clean it completely. All this is done to paint stains or persistent soot stains that can not be removed in any other way.

How sand blasting is done?

Sand blasting can be done in two ways when the first way is in a large container. The container is completely closed and is connected to an air compressor and a sand tank. The compressor increases the air pressure and spins the sand inside the closing tank, and the operator can move the item inside the container using built-in gloves.

The second way to do the sand blasting is with a gun. Not every item can be inserted into the tank, since there are also APCs, tanks, vehicles, metal surfaces for ships and planes, iron fences, etc. The gun is relatively small and is attached to the air compressor and container, so you can spray directly on the surface without moving him.

Is it possible to spray sand independently?

Sand blasting is a complicated and complex operation that only seems simple. In order to splash sand yourself, you must be certified, and if you do not, you must not deal with these devices at all. It is important to remember that despite the fact that these are quite small devices that are not so noisy, these devices can cause great damage not only to the eyes but to the skin and the respiratory system. Sand blasting can only be done with full protective equipment, a license, appropriate knowledge and experience, no matter what work is on your way
