Frequently Asked Questions

What areas do you service?

Waters Abrasive Blasting Services provides a wide variety of blasting and surface coating services for Bowen and the surrounding areas, including Queens Beach and Merinda. Contact us to confirm whether we service your specific location.
Can abrasive blasting be used for maintenance work?

Abrasive blasting is widely used in ongoing maintenance for industrial, civil, and marine assets. It’s ideal for removing rust, failed coatings, and contaminants from steel, concrete, and machinery during shutdowns or refurbishments. Blasting enables fresh coatings to be applied effectively, restoring protection and performance without replacing entire structures. Mobile blasting units are particularly useful for onsite maintenance, especially where large or fixed equipment is involved. Using abrasive blasting during maintenance helps prevent structural deterioration, extends asset life, and ensures compliance with safety and coating system requirements.
What’s the difference between open and enclosed blasting?

Open blasting is performed in outdoor or uncontained areas, while enclosed blasting occurs within blast rooms or cabinets. Open blasting is suited for large infrastructure like bridges, ships, or pipelines, where setting up a containment system isn’t practical. However, it produces more dust and requires environmental controls. Enclosed blasting, on the other hand, is conducted in controlled environments with dust extraction and media recycling, ideal for precision work or smaller components. The choice between open and enclosed blasting depends on the size, location, and cleanliness requirements of the job.
How does abrasive blasting compare to mechanical grinding?

Abrasive blasting and mechanical grinding both clean surfaces, but blasting is faster, more consistent, and better for reaching complex shapes or large areas. Grinding is labour-intensive and may leave uneven finishes or heat marks that can affect coating performance. Blasting, on the other hand, creates a uniform profile without distorting the surface. It’s more effective at removing rust, scale, and coatings in preparation for painting or sealing. For structural steel, pipelines, or industrial equipment, abrasive blasting is often the preferred method due to its speed and thoroughness.
