Another Happy Customer!!

At K Blasting we have the knowledge and specialist equipment to get the job done right every time!

Using our fine medias and the correct pressure we can successfully remove the antifouling without attacking the gel coat underneath.

Order of the day:-

  1. The swift operation starts by completely encapsulating the boat and the floor using large sheets to contain all the used grit and debris. (Wind is not our friend today, battling the large sheets).
  2. Then the set up of our extensive equipment to carry out the job, checking each peace of equipment to make sure its ready for the day.
  3. Ready for action! First, We always ask the customer to see a small sample before carrying on, this ensures they know what we are able to achieve and what to expect.
  4. Complete the blast cleaning….. The noisy and messy but extremely satisfying process begins until the job is complete.
  5. Check our work to ensure we have competed to our usual high standard and ask the customer to check also.
  6. Drop the sheets and hose down.
  7. The major clean up operation begins! Clearing the used grit and debris that has fallen onto our sheets is to be shoveled and bagged back up for safe removal. This is back breaking work under the boat after the already intensive job of the blast cleaning.
  8. Fold away the many sheets used for the job. (Please wind, Be kind!)
  9. Pack away the blast cleaning equipment, looking for any repairs that may need to be carried out, and loading into the Landrover.
  10. Final inspection of Site to make sure it is how we found it including a sign off from the boat yard manager.

 

 

Earlier this year, K Blasting started works and helped to complete the remedial project on the Historical ‘Exeter Iron Bridge’
Because of the age of the bridge and the close proximity of public buildings and shops, We could only carry out certain methods of mechanical cleaning.

Upon removal of the existing road surface, this exposed a small strip of original, unpainted railing, along the entire length of the bridge on both sides. It was K Blasting’s task to remove the rust using mechanical tools and the painstaking task of applying 4 coats of paint by hand to 150m.

All of the following work was either carried out on telescopic lifts on the outside of the bridge or on our hand and knees on the inside of the bridge.

It has been a good contract to be apart of but not without hard work

K Blasting – Radiator restoration

Blast cleaning old cast iron radiators is the perfect method to remove years of paint and rust from all the difficult areas. Blast cleaning also gives the steel a great profile for the new coatings to adhere to. In this case, the detailing of the radiators were hard to make out and can now be easily seen.

 

 

 

Another oak frame project completed by K Blasting in Exmouth, Devon.

What a spectacular view at this private changing room facilities for their outside swimming pool.

Blast cleaning is a great way to remove any staining or band marks from the wood processing at the saw mills. As can be seen from the  before and after pictures,  it’s very satisfying to bring these results to our customers.

 

2024 has been a busy year so far, here at K Blasting Ltd.

The company still gives great satisfaction of completing many domestic and on-site jobs, with great results as always, from our blast cleaning and painting services.

With the knowledge and skills We have acquired over 34 years on the tools, its amazing the amount of different materials that can be cleaned and the different finished we can achieve using our blast cleaning techniques.

Some of our different projects, BIG and small :-

So far this week, K Blasting has completed more satisfying work with great results.
The pictures say it all. AND THE WEEK ISNT EVEN OVER!
Smiles all round 😁😁
Come rain or shine, K Blasting still commences with work….. ☔️
On this rainy, dark morning, we have been working in Blackness Marina, Ditisham, to remove the black anti-fowling from an aluminium motor boat.
The results were brilliant.
Not only has the blast cleaning removed the anti-fowling, it has also given the aluminum the perfect profile for new coatings to adhere to.
Another happy customer
A successful day at K Blasting, and another happy customer! 🤩😁
Today’s Oak frame has cleaned exceptionally well, Due to being erected and kept dry for a good amount of time, before the blast cleaning.
Using a fine blast media and low pressure, the dirty oak beams have cleaned uniformly to give a great finish for this extension.

Stone cleaning at “The Cromwell Arms” went as well as normal for K Blasting.

With the correct preparation and the knowledge with different blast medias and pressures, Blast cleaning can give the ultimate results for brightening up old stone walls back to their former glory.

K blasting has another happy customer. We will look forward to returning for a well deserved beer when their restoration is complete.

Last week was exceptionally busy for K Blasting.

It was a pleasure helping “Offshore Turbine Services” to remove the antifouling from two of their mighty Catamaran vessels, carried out in Dolphin Boat yard, Galmpton.

With using the correct blast media and pressure, blast cleaning will gently remove the antifouling, leaving the Gel coat intact.

“Captain P” & “Lieutenant P” are now ready for some repairs and new coatings thanks to our Knowledge and services.
