Understanding Surface Profiles

Sandblasting goes beyond simply removing rust, paint, or contaminants. It also shapes the microscopic texture on a surface. This texture, often called the surface profile, matters for coating adhesion. A paint or protective layer bonds more reliably when it has the right peaks and valleys to grip. This section explains how sandblasting creates diverse profiles and why these profiles influence coating performance. It also covers equipment innovations that boost efficiency and safety. AA Sandblasting applies these insights and modern technologies to serve a range of customers.
