Preparing Surfaces for Painting

Paint does more than add colour. It shields surfaces against rust, weather, and daily wear. However, a fresh coat only performs well if the underlying surface is ready. Sandblasting, also referred to as abrasive blasting, creates a clean, textured surface that promotes better adhesion of primers and paints. AA Sandblasting, founded in 1977 in Fyshwick, has decades of experience preparing metal, concrete, timber, and other materials for painting. This section explains why thorough surface preparation is vital for a durable paint job and how sandblasting can help you achieve professional results.
