Wet blasting, also known as vapor blasting or slurry blasting, combines the precision of abrasive materials with the softening power of water and delivers a superior clean without the harshness associated with traditional sandblasting methods. This innovative technique not only meticulously cleans surfaces but also prepares them for coatings, ensuring an optimal foundation for any finishing work. Whether you’re dealing with delicate historical restorations or robust industrial machinery, our wet blasting services are engineered to provide a clean, polished finish while preserving the integrity of the underlying material.

At Painters USA, we understand the critical role of surface cleanliness and preparation in the longevity and performance of coatings. Our expert wet blasting services are designed to meet the diverse needs of our clients, from intricate restoration projects to large-scale industrial cleanings. With minimal environmental impact, reduced dust generation, and unparalleled surface finish quality, our solutions are your answer to advanced cleaning and precise surface preparation challenges.

Other benefits of vapor-assisted blasting


Painters USA utilizes vapor-assisted blasting, which is suitable for delicate surfaces and diverse industrial environments like airports, bridges, and factories. Adhering to industry standards and regulations, we ensure safety by employing proper blasting materials, dust collectors, and personal protective equipment (PPE). Our expertise extends to various structures, including concrete tilt-ups, machine shops, metal structures, shipyards, silos, and parking garages, ensuring efficient and compliant cleaning solutions.
