Vapor abrasive blasting (also known as wet abrasive blasting) removes coatings, contaminants, corrosion and residues from hard surfaces. It's similar to dry blasting, except that the blast media is moistened prior to impacting the surface, reducing dust significantly and also reducing the amount of water used when compared to traditional wet blasting.

Some might claim that their products are "dustless" or "dust-free," but the reality is there is no such thing. Sure, using a wet abrasive blasting machine will cut down on the plume of dust you get from dry blasting, but you're also left with a puddle of water. With Graco's EcoQuip 2 Vapor Abrasive blast equipment, you will see up to 92% dust suppression over dry blasting without the wet, slurry mess you get from traditional wet abrasive blasters.

Applications:

·         Blast Cleaning – Dirt, mould, paint and coatings

·         Graffiti Removal – Graffiti from building surfaces

·         Marine Maintenance – Barnacles, biofilm, corrosion and coatings

·         Restoration – Corrosion, grime, coatings and surface dirt

·         Surface Preparation – Use EcoQuip 2 to prepare steel surfaces to be free of grease, dirt, dust, mill scale, rust and paint

Better than dry blasting:

·         Consumes far less media

·         Eliminates up to 92% of airborne dust

·         Saves on clean-up and disposal costs

·         A quick and powerful alternative to dry blasting

·         Adjustable to a wide range of blast pressures

·         Works on virtually any surface

·         Won’t damage substrates
