WE MAKE
OLD PARTS
LOOK NEW
AGAIN.
GENTLE CLEANING OF
ALUMINIUM, CAST IRON,
MILD STEEL AND MORE.
Aquablasting is a new way of gently cleaning old dirt, grease, oil and other dirt off surfaces to make them look like new again. The stream of water and glass beads is non abrasive on parts and preserves the original surface.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
ABOUT AQUABLASTING
We have compiled answers to the most common questions. In essence it’s quite simple: dirty parts in, clean parts out.
- Our process uses high-pressure water and glass beads. Although this method is considered more gentle than sandblasting, cleaning is done entirely at your own risk. We cannot take responsibility for damage to your parts, including but not limited to bearings, moving parts, rubber, silicon, gaskets, and glass or water getting into places where you don’t want glass bead and water to go.
- We will not be able to provide materials or labour to cover any holes, channels, or bearings.
- Glass particles will clog your bearings and moving parts, so if you intend on re-using them, it’s better to remove your bearings. The process is usually safe for most rubber/silicon components. Please ensure oil is drained out of all parts; otherwise it will contaminate our systems with oil.
- Thoroughly inspect your parts prior to re-assembly and remove any water/glass media that is left behind before you do anything. While we try our best, some hard-to-reach areas may not get adequately cleaned.
- Paint the parts or add a coat as soon as possible or protect them with a product like Corrosion Block or ACF-50 (anti-corrosion fluid) You can buy a spray can from us when you collect your parts. Our complimentary rust prevention dip, that we apply to every cleaned part, lasts up to one week.
- Cleaning parts can be unpredictable. Parts brought in for cleaning sometimes require more and sometimes less time to clean, depending on what surprises may await us when we start the process. We can provide you with a fixed quotation. This will require you to leave your parts with us so that we can work out the correct price to be confirmed before we proceed. (Quotations can only be made out with the physical parts on hand at our facility)
ACF-50 for your clean parts:
The spray is non-greasy and stops corrosion for up to 12 months. Available at the counter.
