Abrasive Blasting Ireland

Abrasive blasting with grit, garnet, glass bead and steel shot matched to the substrate and specification.

Abrasive blasting covers every technique where media is propelled at a surface to clean, strip or profile it. Rayco selects the abrasive to suit the substrate and the specification — angular steel grit for structural steel, garnet for stainless and non-ferrous metals, glass bead for finishing, and low-pressure or wet media for stone, brick and render. Silica sand is not used. Every job is priced after a free survey and delivered with containment, recovery and documentation.

This service forms part of our nationwide Shotblasting Ireland work — see that page for the full process, standards and county coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What abrasive media do you use?

Steel shot and grit, garnet, glass bead and soft media depending on the substrate and finish required. We do not use silica sand.

Is abrasive blasting the same as shotblasting?

Shotblasting is one form of abrasive blasting — the term abrasive blasting covers all media types, including grit, garnet, bead and soft media.

Can abrasive blasting be used indoors?

Yes, with containment and vacuum recovery. Closed-circuit machines are used on concrete floors so adjoining areas can usually stay in use.
