The main advantages of Micro blasting / Bead Blasting surface cleanliness along with whitish Grey color.
Finally, bead blasting is another air pressure powered abrasive blasting method that uses glass beads. These glass beads are effective at cleaning, deburring and peening metal surface. The glass beads are spherical in shape and when impact the surface create a micro-dimple. In aggregate, this gives off a much more uniform finish. These glass beads are 100% recyclable making it a cost-effective method. The use of glass beads also results in a much cleaner and bright finish. The use of glass beads & alumina oxides also ensures the abrasive is non-toxic and not harmful to the environment.
If using fine glass beads, it’ll give off a dull or satin finish against metals such as aluminum. Coarser beads, on the other hand, will give a uniform but rough finish.
Best used for : Providing surfaces with a bright smooth finish. It’s a much more effective way of cleaning surfaces and is more cost-efficient
