what is vapour blasting and why do i need it?

Vapour blasting, also known as wet blasting or liquid honing, is a cleaning and surface finishing process that uses a fine mix of water, abrasive media, and compressed air. Unlike traditional dry blasting, vapour blasting is much gentler on components while still achieving a superior, uniform finish. The water cushions and lubricates the blasting media, preventing damage to delicate surfaces while producing a smooth, factory-fresh look.

This process is ideal for aluminium, stainless steel, brass, bronze, and other non-ferrous metals commonly found in engine and mechanical components. Vapour blasting not only restores the cosmetic appearance but also seals the surface, making it more resistant to dirt, grease, and corrosion.

Why you need it:

• Restores old, tarnished, or corroded parts back to a near-new condition
• Maintains precise tolerances by cleaning without removing excess material
• Creates a smooth, sealed finish that resists future staining
• Ideal for restorations, rebuilds, or simply extending the lifespan of parts

Whether you’re restoring a classic engine, rebuilding performance components, or simply want your parts to look their best, vapour blasting provides the professional finish you can’t achieve with traditional cleaning methods.
