When is Abrasive Sandblasting Required?
Abrasive sandblasting is not a necessary part of every coating project. Many items for commercial and industrial applications only require priming in order to process, and don’t need to be abraded.
However, it is essential for certain medical applications, as it ensures proper adhesion of the coating to the item in question. There are also some specific coatings that JSC cannot apply without sandblasting first.

Frequently Asked Questions
Abrasive sandblasting in Indiana is used to clean and prepare metal surfaces before coating applications. It removes rust, oxidation, old paint, mill scale, and contaminants to improve coating adhesion.
Proper surface preparation ensures the coating bonds correctly to the metal substrate. Without abrasive blasting or cleaning, coatings may fail prematurely due to poor adhesion or trapped contaminants.
Abrasive sandblasting can be used on steel, aluminum, iron, fabricated metal parts, machinery components, and industrial equipment requiring surface restoration or preparation.
Yes. Abrasive blasting creates a textured surface profile that helps powder coatings and protective finishes bond more effectively, improving long-term durability and corrosion resistance.
Yes. Industrial abrasive sandblasting effectively removes heavy corrosion, old paint, powder coatings, and surface buildup from metal parts before refinishing.
