The Soda Blast Process
This new paint stripping technology eliminates toxic cleaning chemicals. It cleans multi-layered surfaces to any level desired and can be used while most machines and processes are in operation. It is a safe, portable, wet or dry, non-destructive stripping process. The soda blast media is a specially formulated sodium bicarbonate -- baking soda. This non-toxic, food-grade material is 100% water soluble and environmentally safe.
Soda blasting uses compressed air to propel the media onto the area to be cleaned. When the media comes in contact with the contaminant on the substrate, the sodium bicarbonate particles explode. The resulting release of energy disrupts the contaminate surface leaving the substrate completely unaffected. Other processes, such as sand blasting, damage the underlying surfaces. They tend to cause "oil-canning" -- a destructive warping or bending of the metal substrates.
SodaBlast particles remove surface contaminant by the energy released as the paricles explode when pressure-driven into contact with the contaminant surface. The resulting release of energy disrupts the contaminant surface thus leaving the substrate completely unaffected.
The Collision Center and Soda Blasting can meet your needs for paint stripping or cleaning of contaminates. We can remove graffiti, mold, fire damage, or assist with your boat and car restorations. |
