A blast hood is one of the most important pieces of safety gear for abrasive blasting. It protects operators from rebounding abrasive, harmful dust, and excess noise, while providing clean, breathable air. Choosing the right hood ensures comfort, reduces fatigue, and keeps crews safe on the job. Our buying guide compares top options like the Nova 3, Nova 2000, Bullard GVX, and Bullard 88VX so you can make the right choice for your next project.

Lead-based paint is hazardous and requires certified removal practices. With the right blasting equipment, containment, and PPE, Sandblast Solutions Inc. helps contractors safely and efficiently remove lead coatings from bridges, tanks, and industrial structures.

Industrial vacuums are essential for blasting, coating, and abatement projects. They simplify cleanup, recover expensive blasting media, and control hazardous dust, improving both safety and efficiency. From portable units for confined spaces to heavy-duty trailer-mounted systems, the right vacuum setup saves time, reduces costs, and keeps your jobsite compliant.

Bridge rehabilitation projects demand precision surface preparation to ensure coatings adhere and structures stay protected. From removing lead-based coatings to achieving the proper anchor profile, using the right blasting equipment, dust containment, and safety protocols keeps jobs compliant, efficient, and safe.

Vapor blasting combines water, compressed air, and abrasive to deliver powerful surface preparation with minimal dust. Unlike dry blasting, it keeps airborne hazards low, reduces heat, and improves coating removal efficiency. Ideal for sensitive or occupied environments, vapor blasting is widely used in public facilities, shipyards, and thin-metal applications.

The Bristle Blaster is a handheld power tool that removes corrosion and creates an anchor profile without abrasive media. Its rotary bristle belt delivers grit-blast quality results for surface preparation in industries from oil and gas to shipbuilding. Fast, safe, and portable, it’s ideal for spot repairs or jobs where traditional blasting is impractical.
