If you’ve got a tough cleaning problem, Construction Systems has a cleaning solution. Soda blasting is the answer to many cleaning dilemmas. Soda blasting is a cleaning process in which sodium bicarbonate, also know as baking soda, is applied with the force of compressed air against a surface that needs to be cleaned. It is similar to sand blasting, but has some distinct differences. A soda blaster can clean a surface without damaging the substrate or the environment. It removes stubborn grease and oils, carbon, surface corrosion, paint and coatings from a variety of materials.

Soda Blast Process & Application

Blasting soda crumbles easily, so when it is projected against an object, it fragments on contact, taking off the surface materials without damaging what is underneath. The process of sodablasting was actually developed to clean the Statue of Liberty in the 1980s. Scientists needed a process that would not damage the statue or the environment. Today, soda blasters are capable of cleaning in a myriad of applications, including the ones below.

  • Cleaning
  • Paint stripping
  • Automotive restoration
  • Industrial equipment maintenance
  • Rust removal
  • Graffiti removal
  • Molecular steel passivation against rust
  • Oil removal by saponification and translocation
  • Masonry cleaning and restoration
  • Soot remediation
  • Boat hull cleaning
  • Food processing facilities and equipment
  • Mold damage

Baking soda blasting is approved by the FDA and is non-toxic, non-sparking, non-flammable, non-hazardous, and environmentally safe.
