What We Do
No matter how good a coating system is, it will fail if the surface beneath it isn't properly prepared. Sandblasting — or abrasive blasting — is the most effective method for removing rust, old paint, mill scale, and contaminants from metal and other hard surfaces.
Huntress Painting offers professional sandblasting services as both a standalone service and as part of a complete industrial painting or coating system. Proper blasting ensures maximum adhesion and dramatically extends the life of any coating applied over it.
What's Involved
Abrasive blasting creates a surface profile — a microscopic texture — that allows coatings to mechanically bond to the substrate. The right profile is essential for coating adhesion and longevity.
Industrial coating specifications require specific blast cleanliness standards (SP-6, SP-10, SP-5, etc.). Huntress Painting's crew is trained to meet these specifications consistently on every project.
Sandblasting generates significant debris. Proper containment systems are required to prevent environmental contamination and protect surrounding areas — especially when working on structures like bridges or tanks near waterways.
When blasting older structures, lead paint may be present. This requires certified handling and disposal procedures. Huntress Painting also offers certified lead paint abatement services.
The Huntress Difference
Many contractors treat surface preparation as an afterthought. At Huntress Painting, we treat it as the most important step in any coating project. Our blasting crews are trained to achieve the specified surface cleanliness and profile — not just close enough.
Because we offer blasting and coating under one roof, there's no coordination gap between your surface prep contractor and your painting contractor. We control the quality of every step from start to finish.
