Grit, Bead & Shot Blasting
Commercial blasting and surface preparation across marine, aerospace, automotive and industrial sectors from our dedicated Poole facility.
Industrial Blasting Built for Demanding Sectors
Choosing the right service provider for your commercial blasting requirement is absolutely critical. At Wicked Coatings in Poole, Dorset, we pride ourselves on the quality of our facilities, the expertise of our team and our extensive grit, bead and shot blasting experience across marine, aerospace, automotive, military and industrial projects.
As demand for our services continues to grow, so does our investment in industrial blasting equipment. Dedicated chambers for heavy grit blasting, precision bead blasting and peening-grade shot blasting allow us to match the right media and process to every substrate we handle.
Three Processes, One Facility
From heavy-duty coating removal to delicate stainless steel finishing, our blasting capabilities cover every commercial surface preparation need.
-
construction Grit Blasting Heavy-duty surface preparation that removes old coatings, rust, mill scale and contaminants, leaving the ideal anchor profile for primer and topcoat adhesion.
-
blur_on Bead Blasting Dedicated glass bead facility for sensitive substrates including stainless steel. Delivers a clean, uniform finish without altering dimensional tolerances.
- scatter_plot Shot Blasting Spherical media peening that improves fatigue resistance and stress distribution on aerospace, automotive and engineering components where longevity is critical.
Preparation That Protects the Coating
Every blasting job follows a controlled workflow that delivers the cleanliness, profile and activation needed for a successful coating system.
