Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you remove heavy rust?
Yes — garnet blasting takes rust and scale back to sound metal.
Will the rust come back?
We coat promptly after blasting so bare metal doesn't flash-rust in the humidity.
How much does rust removal cost?
Starting at $2.50 per minute, with a free estimate.
Can you save a badly corroded part?
Often yes — we'll assess whether blasting plus coating restores it or if the metal is too far gone.
Do you coat after removing rust?
Yes — most rust-removal jobs go straight into a powder coat or primer.
