Our Sandblasting Process

We evaluate your project requirements, inspect the substrate, and recommend the best blasting method and media for your specific application.

On-site inspection of surfaces and substrateIdentify coatings, contaminants, and corrosionRecommend blasting method (traditional, wet abrasive, dry ice, laser, etc.)Determine compliance requirements (NACE, ISO, SSPC)

Select media and pressure after substrate and test-area assessment. Pure dry ice does not create an abrasive profile. Damage-free results are not guaranteed.

Media selection based on substrate sensitivityPressure selection following substrate and test-area assessmentSurface profile specification (e.g., 2-3 mils)Recycled crushed-glass options selected for the project

We deploy containment systems including tarps, dust collectors, and industrial vacuums. All crew follow strict OSHA, EPA, and DOT safety protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions

Suitability is assessed for each substrate and test area. Media, pressure and technique are selected for the surface and specification; not every surface can be blasted without damage.

We offer traditional sandblasting, wet abrasive blasting, dry ice blasting, soda blasting, laser blasting, shot blasting, bristle blasting, and ultra-high-pressure water jetting. Each method has its strengths, and we recommend the best option for your project's needs, budget, and timeline.

Our eco-friendly abrasive options include recycled crushed-glass media, selected where appropriate for the surface and project.

Crystalline-silica content must be assessed using the selected media’s SDS.

Blasting can damage unsuitable substrates. Assess the substrate and a test area before selecting media, pressure and technique. Not every surface or existing coating is suitable for the same method.

DFT measures dry coating thickness; surface cleanliness and profile are assessed separately. Cleanliness, dust, soluble salts and profile are assessed against the project specification, using appropriate inspection methods.

Occupied-area blasting requires segregation, containment, ventilation and cleanup planned for the substrate, removed contaminants and adjacent work. We coordinate scheduling to reduce disruption. Isolation, shutdowns and cure periods may be required. MPC personnel will confirm the operating restrictions and estimated duration for your project.

We can coordinate blasting and coating in one scope. Surface acceptance and coating timing must meet the specified system requirements; do not assume a universal no-flash-rust window.

We're based in Ohio but provide commercial and industrial sandblasting services across the entire United States. Our team is fully equipped to travel to your project location anywhere in the country.

What Our Clients Say

“Markley Precision Company was easy to work with and the quality of their work is second to none. I have used them on three separate projects and have been very pleased with the quality of work each time. No job seems to be too big or too small. I have used them to blast and paint a 30,000 gallon propane tank, and to blast and paint our vertical bulk storage vessels for nitrogen, oxygen, and argon. They've even done work for me on the Lake Erie Islands, as well, which presented logistical challenges, but MPC didn't miss a beat. I would recommend MPC 100 out of 100 times.”

M

Matt Drennen

“Very happy with the work completed so far with MPC. Last year, I had them paint 5 of our 30,000 gallon bullet tanks. The work was completed quickly and professionally. With a years worth of age on them now, they still look as good as new! I was so pleased with their work on the tanks, I hired them to complete an even larger, more complex project blasting and recoating a natural gas processing mechanical refrigeration unit. Even when some concerns came up, they quickly remediated the situation. Extremely happy with the work they've performed!”

P

Paul Teeters

“MPC Sandblasting and Painting have serviced various locations for us. They have ensured a positive experience from start to finish. The staff is very helpful and quick with responses as well as their services. Their work is just as great! We look forward to many more opportunities to work with this team.”
