Metal Sandblasting That Strips Rust and Old Coatings Down to Bare Metal

Rust, old paint, corrosion, mill scale — our metal sandblasting process strips it all back to clean, bare metal using abrasive pressure matched to the base material. See the result with a free on-site test blast before committing to the full job.

Metal Sandblasting

What Is Metal Sandblasting

Metal sandblasting is a controlled abrasive process that removes rust, corrosion, old paint, and mill scale from metal surfaces down to clean, sound base material. We match the abrasive media and pressure to the metal type and thickness — automotive sheet metal calls for a different approach than heavy structural steel or a boat hull.

Getting this wrong matters. Blast too aggressively and you can warp thin-gauge metal or leave a surface profile that’s wrong for the coating system going on afterward. Blast correctly and you get a clean, properly profiled surface that coatings actually bond to — which is the whole point of prepping metal in the first place.

Surface profile is also why metal sandblasting is closely tied to what comes next: most metal only gets blasted because it needs to be repainted or recoated shortly after. That’s why we pair this work closely with our professional painting services.

What We Treat

We handle metal sandblasting across automotive, structural, marine, and industrial applications throughout North Florida:

Vehicles & auto parts

Restoration projects needing bare metal before bodywork or repaint

Structural steel & equipment

Beams, framing, and fabricated steel needing rust and coating removal

Marine & boat hulls

Corrosion and old bottom paint removal

Industrial machinery & tanks

Rust, scale, and failed coatings stripped before recoating

How It Works

Our Process

Consultation

Call (904) 977-0117 and walk us through the project — the metal type, its condition, and what's happening afterward (repaint, recoat, or bare finish). We'll tell you straight what to expect.

On-Site Assessment & Free Test Blast

We inspect the metal and run a complimentary test blast on an actual section of your surface. You see the real result before committing to anything.

Transparent, Itemized Quote

Based on the test blast and site conditions, you get a fully itemized quote. No lump-sum guessing, no hidden add-ons.

Execution & Full Cleanup

Our self-contained mobile rig sets up on-site and completes the blasting. When we're done, we collect and haul away all debris before we leave.

Why Choose Us

Why Choose Us for Metal Sandblasting

Free On-Site Test Blast

You don’t have to take our word for how your metal will turn out. We blast a real section of your actual surface first, at no cost, so you can see the result before you approve the full job.

100% Transparent Pricing

Every quote is itemized and explained. What we quote is what you pay — no surprise line items after the work starts.

Largest Self-Contained Mobile Blast Rig in North Florida

Our full-size, towable rig runs the whole operation on-site — no shop drop-off, no waiting on a second trip for equipment.

Full Debris Cleanup Included

We don’t blast and leave. All surface debris and spent media is cleaned up and hauled away as part of the job — not billed as an “extra.”

OSHA-Compliant, Industry-Informed Surface Prep

We follow OSHA abrasive blasting standards (29 CFR 1910.94) on every job, and prep metal surfaces with attention to the profile and cleanliness levels described in AMPP (formerly SSPC) surface preparation standards. so coatings applied afterward actually bond and last.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will sandblasting warp or damage thin metal?

Not when the media and pressure are matched to the metal’s thickness and condition. That’s exactly why we run a free test blast on your actual surface first.

Yes. We strip corrosion and old bottom paint from marine hulls and equipment down to sound base metal.

Once blasting is complete and debris is cleaned up, the surface has the profile and cleanliness a fresh coating system needs to bond properly.

Both. We cover automotive restoration, structural steel, marine hulls, and industrial machinery. See our FAQs for more answers on pricing and scheduling.
