Phoenix Metal Finishers - Aqua Blasting

One of the more popular processes that can be carried out here at Phoenix is aqua blasting, also known as vapour blasting. Extremely small, fine glass beads are suspended in water and fired under pressure at the object. This will peen the entire surface, giving an overall sheen rather than a shine. It can be used as a final finish or as a prelude to anodising. Using aqua blasting and polishing together will give a very pleasing contrast of finishes and if used in the right situation, the item can look stunning. Any metal item can be blasted to give the same all over finish. Machined parts can easily be done, giving a very good, even finish

This is a highly recommended preparation on carburettors, since all the small nooks and crannies can be reached easily, giving a very pleasing and desirable finish.
