Uniformity, Performance, and Reliability in an Abrasive Blasting Solution
When choosing the right abrasive blasting media, the most important factors to consider are uniformity and material hardness. The uniformity of an abrasive blend ensures consistent coverage and finish, while hardness impacts how effectively the abrasive blasting media powers through tough buildup without damaging the underlying substrate.
