www.australianenviroblast.com.au Abrasive blasting is an
essential tool in a wide variety of building renovation
applications. It offers a versatile, efficient, thorough but gentle
cleaning process that makes it ideal in all kinds of renovation and
restoration tasks. Whether stripping paint from interior and
exterior walls, cleaning oil-stained driveways and car parks,
removing graffiti, repairing flood or fire damage, undertaking a
sensitive heritage restoration or renovating memorials or public
art works, our abrasive blasting services are the ideal cleaning
and preparation solution. At Australian Enviroblast, we use the
Quill Falcon Kwikblast Dustless Blasting System, an environmentally
friendly cleaning system noted for its power, efficiency and
ability to remove a wide range of coatings, corrosion and residues
from all types of structures, locations and equipment, leaving
surfaces completely clean and contaminant free.
Building restoration Abrasive blasting can be used for a
variety of purposes in the restoration and renovation of all types
of buildings and structures, including domestic and commercial
premises as well as all types of industrial and manufacturing
spaces.
Paint removal Using the Quill Falcon Kwikblast Dustless
Blasting System, our abrasive blasting services are especially
effective at removing paint from all types of surfaces, including:
brick, concrete, timber, ceramic tiles, sandstone, bluestone and
limestone. This means that paint, residue and other coatings can be
quickly and efficiently stripped from walls and floors in all kinds
of building: domestic, commercial, retail and industrial. Abrasive
blasting is also ideal for restoring and renovating outdoor living
areas, patios, verandahs and pool surrounds. Renovation or resale
If youre a homeowner, builder, house painter or property manger
renovating or redecorating a home, or preparing it for sale or
rental, stripping away old, existing layers of paint is vital
before repainting. Abrasive blasting cleans away all residual paint
layers leaving an extremely smooth, even finish that is the ideal
preparation for repainting. Likewise, if your brickwork or
stonework, fences and walls, driveway or outdoor living area need
to be cleaned and revitalised before a resale or renting out,
abrasive blasting strips away oil and mould stains, residue and
corrosion, and restores all types of surfaces to pristine
condition.

Paint spills and accidents In a manufacturing or industrial
space, abrasive blasting is ideal for cleaning away paint spills,
oil and residue, corrosion and most other types of surface
deterioration or damage.Abrasive blasting is safe and effective on
all types of surface, including concrete, bitumen, steel, tiles,
timber and stone. Fire and flood repair Properties that have been
damaged by fire and flood can also benefit from abrasive blasting
as part of their remediation. Less labour-intensive and without
involving any chemicals, damaged interiors and exteriors can be
restored to a state where restoration and renovation can take
place. Abrasive blasting can remove soot, mould, odours and stains,
and profiles surfaces so that they are ready for repainting,
plastering or rendering. Rust and corrosion The Australian
Enviroblast wet abrasive blasting system removes rust and corrosion
from all metal surfaces and structural steel. Around the home,
abrasive blasting is highly effective at removing corrosion from
your patio or verandah, intricate lattice work, garden trellises,
gates and fences, garden sheds and exposed pipes. The Quill Falcon
Kwikblast Dustless Blasting System is also suitable for use on a
much larger scale.Wet abrasive blasting can be used to clean and
restore warehouses, factories and retail premises, agricultural and
industrial machinery, as well as trailers and horse floats.
Timber decks and fences Although it is powerful and
fast-working, wet abrasive blasting is also extremely gentle and so
can be used on soft surfaces and delicate materials.This includes
wood and timber, meaning that stains, mould, paint and graffiti can
be removed from all kinds of wooden structures and surfaces,
including decking, outdoor furniture, stairs and fences. Abrasive
blasting is suitable for cleaning and restoring wooden structures
and surfaces in domestic, commercial and marine environments.
Graffiti removal Graffiti can be an eyesore when its in an
unwelcome or appropriate placeeven if it has artistic merit! It is
particularly disfiguring when its found on commercial and retail
premises, or on public buildings, and can detract significantly
from a propertys value. Our abrasive blasting services are
especially effective at removing graffiti from all types of
surfaces, including brick, concrete, bitumen, metal, steel timber
and PVC .The process, however, is gentle and leaves the original
surface intact and smooth, ready for repainting or re-coating.
Graffiti removal using wet abrasive blasting can be undertaken in
any location and is particularly suited to use in public spaces,
because the process produces little dust or residue, and so there
is minimal disruption to the surrounding area and no environmental
damage. Furthermore, our equipment is completely mobile and
flexible, which means we can reach and clean away graffiti in the
most out-of-the-way places.
Walkways, tiles and car parks Abrasive blasting is an effective
means of cleaning mould, grease, oil and other slippery deposits
from paths, walkways, car parks and driveways around the home and
in commercial environments. In addition, concrete aggregate can be
exposed by abrasive blasting to create non-slip surfaces and is
perfect for use around the home, and in public spaces such as
shopping centres, schools, industrial parks, and commercial
premises. Non-slip surfaces can be created by abrasive blasting in
a variety of materials and surfaces, including concrete, tiles and
pavers. Swimming pools Abrasive blasting is effective both in
cleaning pool surrounds and creating non-slip pathways, bus also
for cleaning pool interiors, or stripping and restoring them in
preparation for re-surfacing or re-tiling.
Heritage restorations In Adelaide, many of our finest heritage
buildings and residences are located within high-density areas, and
therefore they are particularly prone to suffering from traffic and
environmental pollution and degradation. Sandstone and bluestone,
historically the stones used in the majority of Adelaide buildings,
can become severely discoloured and this leads not only to a
deterioration in appearance but also to the overall integrity of
the stone as result of decay. However, abrasive blasting using the
Quill Falcon Kwikblast Dustless Blasting System means that years of
soot, grime and fumes build up can be removed quickly but without
causing any damage to the surface. More gentle than sand blasting
and other types of cleaning, abrasive blasting is ideal for use on
softer stones like sandstone, bluestone limestone and masonry. The
Quill Falcon Kwikblast Dustless Blasting System is economical,
environmentally-friendly and non-toxic. No chemicals are used and
therefore there is no negative environmental impact. Little dust is
produced and so our abrasive blasting services can be employed in
heritage or residential areas without the need for encapsulation or
causing undue disruption. Heritage restorations of sandstone or
bluestone buildings, houses and cottages naturally requires
additional care and sensitivity and abrasive blasting using the
Quill Falcon Dustless Blast System is the ideal solution.
Statues and memorials Adelaide is blessed with a fine array of
stone public statuary in the city centre and throughout its
suburbs. However, public art, statues and memorials, when located
outside, are subject to the elements, and often become stained and
discoloured as a result of traffic fumes, air pollution and being
exposed to the wind and the rain. As a result, they can often be
covered with a layer of grime, mould and a build up of dirt which
detracts from their appearance and significance. Abrasive blasting
using the Quill Falcon Kwikblast Dustless Blasting System allows
these public works to be restored to their former glory without
damaging the fine detail and contours or detracting from the
artists original vision. Intricate surface designs can be cleaned
without any damage, as there are no chemicals used and the process
is a gentle one. Likewise, public memorials can be fully
appreciated if they are clean and all writing and inscriptions is
clearly visible. In addition, abrasive blasting is gentle enough to
be used on other artistic media, such as wood, copper and steel,
and so is suitable for the cleaning of contemporary works of art
installed in public spaces as well.
