An Overview of the Sandblasting Process Employed for Our Needs

Sandblasting is a term which is complex and some might have also heard about it. This comes into play for a lot of things and to make use for cleaning products and surfaces. There are many who consider this activity as a pattern or a new form of art. These are all kinds of assumptions made by the public; however, these are also somewhat true. However, this process involves the act of forcing very small bit of particles at a very high velocity and that is done to clean the surface you find dull or infected. Each of the material used has its own set of advantages for the purpose of sandblasting and there are specific reasons for using them. The term sand blast is due to the process which is performed for completing the job. The use of sand is stopped because it can initiate the disease silicosis which is a lung disease. This is the prime reason for not using the sand in this process and good alternatives are being employed for completing the work. This happens due to the excess amount of dust particles entering the lungs and making them weak in the process of sand blasting. Basically, the equipment consists of 3 parts and those are abrasive, blaster nozzle, and an air compressor. There is also a fourth piece of material for holding the glass and most importantly a


collector which will make sure all the excess dust can be collected. This is one of the best and a very effective method for the cleaning of different objects.
