Facade cleaning
Realizing the finest, natural looking blasting results – without surface disruption - on very different projects can be achieved with Gritco’s precisely controlled, low blasting pressure possibilities using very fine abrasives.
Gritco’s high quality blast pots
For the blasting of facades fine abrasive must be used with a low blasting pressure. Also, a constant metered quantity and flow of abrasive is of great importance for an uniform result. Gritco has developed special blastpots for this.
Gritco’s aftercoolers
When using fine abrasives, dry compressed air is an absolute must. This prevents blockages in the blast pot and guarantees a constant metered flow. A cooler, possibly extended with filters, gives this dry air.
Gritco’s personal protection
The user must obviously be well protected against rebounding abrasive and dust. Because low blasting pressures are used, a blasting helmet is not immediately required. An airhood also provides an adequate protection.
The right choice of abrasives
The choice depends on the type of material of the object. On this basis, it is determined which type of abrasive should be used. The surface result depends on the grain size of the abrasive. In general one-pass abrasives will be selected with grain sizes between 0.05 and 0.3 mm.
The right compressor
The simple fact, "more power = more work" also applies to the last part of the blasting chain, the compressor. With more air capacity you can work faster. Because low blasting pressures are used the required compressor capacity therefore is often between 850 and 3500 l/min. More info about the size of compressor here.
