FAQ's covers off on a couple of topics such as Polyurea & Sprayfoam, Nano Coatings to Abrasive Blasting Services

  • Reasons for choosing Polyurea?
    The reasons are it is a Fast Set Coating/Membrane which is Abrasion & Chemical Resistance & is the perfect choice for Waterproofing & sealing a majority of substrates. If you are looking for a Potable Water Solution this has achieved AS 4020.
  • What type of material does Polyurea adhere to?
    Polyurea bonds to most surfaces - steel, aluminium, concrete, fibreglass, rubber, polystyrene & other plastics
  • What chemicals is Polyurea resistant to?
    Polyurea is resistant to most acids & alkalais, solvents, fuels, paints, bleaches, organic solvents, fertilizers & so much more
  • What type of surface preparation is requried?
    Polyurea requires a clean surface to bond to. Depending on the substrate it will either require abrasive blasting, mechanical cleaning or high pressure water blasting. A primer in most cases is essental for a great chemical bond of the Polyurea
  • What is the drying time after the application of Polyurea?
    As seen in the photo it can take as little as 5-7 seconds for this particular Polyurea to be trafficable. Other Polyureas depending on their intended nature can take up to a minute to be able to walked on. Like most coatings it will achieve it will become more resliant after 24 hours
  • What thickness can polyurea be applied?
    Polyurea can range in thickness from normally 1.5mm (waterproofing) to 3mm (abrasion resistance) or where needed. Depending on the application it can range up to 10mm & above when it comes to structural strengthening of buildings In the picture the Test Dolly was not even able to break the bond of the Polyurea on the side of Tank
  • Does Polyurea dampen vibrations?
    Polyurethane Thermal Plastic helps dampen vibrations. The product is flexible to absorb a degree of movement between components. You can see this in our photo of a Jet Ski
  • Why is Polyurea application cost effective?
    No undercoats or waiting additional coats to dry before application or repairs. To rebuild on wear areas it is simple as respraying on existing material, saving on plant down time & application costs. In the photo is spraying for Floc Tanks in the Mines
  • Polyurea easily repairable?
    Blast It Clean It Paint It has a wealth of experience by binding onto aged Polyurea which can be seen in the photo in a Waste Water Treatment Plant
  • Does Polyurea provide a watertight seal?
    Polyurea products are water resistant & 100% solid material, not allowing any water impregnations to the under side surfaces as you see in the photo
  • Can Polyurea be easily repaired?
    Blast It Clean It Paint It can mould onto existing Polyurea Products giving you a brand new surface
  • Reasons for choosing Blast It Clean It Paint It
    We have been in business for 27 years & have a professional understanding of what industries require for finding their solutions and exceeding expectations & outcomes. For more, click here.
  • Reasons for choosing Nano Coating
    Nano-Coating is safe to use, cuts cleaning time and cuts use of chemical cleaners by up to 90%. It’s abrasion resistant, long-lasting (5 years for most surface coatings), maintains the look of surfaces by protecting them from stains and UV damage. These coatings do not change the look or texture or the breathability of various materials, yet provide a barrier that is impervious to & provides an Anti-Stick surface for dirt & other contaminants.

  • Applications for Nano Coating
    The applications for nano coatings are almost endless providing solutions and enhancements that previously seemed impossible on stone/brick, metal, raw timber, anti-graffiti, solar, plastics & polymers, glass and ceramics. For more, click here.
  • What is the difference between Abrasive Blasting & Water Blasting?
    Abrasive blasting uses abrasive material such as garnet to remove corrosion and create a new surface profile. Water blasting uses high pressure water to clean surfaces and can also be used in conjunction with Soda/Bi-Carb or chemicals to remove paint.
  • Reasons for choosing Polyurea?
    Polyurea is a truly remarkable coating, lining and joint sealant technology, being successfully used for a large variety of commercial/industrial applications. They have tremendous advantages over conventional coating materials, as they can be used to repair cracking in concrete, capable of expanding up to 700% and has proven extreme durability/abrasion resistance. It outlasts, out performs all previous coating methods. Application time is significantly reduced, enabling the owner to put the facility back into use immediately, rather than waiting days and weeks for old fashion coatings to cure, it is dry to the touch in 10 seconds. Full, unrestricted use in 24 hours or less. Tensile strength at 24Cº from 1,500 to 6,600psi. Unlike other paints, there is NO REDUCTION OF THICKNESS (shear loss) at edges or corners with Polyurea. It’s thick, full coverage application typically requires little or no down time. Polyurea is more than a maintenance-free solution to your needs... it’s a great looking coating! When image is important, Polyurea will make you proud of your assets.
  • Where can Polyurea be used?
    Polyurea can bond to most surfaces - steel, aluminium, timber, concrete, fibreglass, rubber, polystyrene and plastic surfaces and geofrabic linings. For more, click here.
  • Do you work for residential?
    No. We do not carry out work for residential
  • Do you work commercial?
    Yes. We carry out work for the commercial industry. ie - Council buildings and facilities, Factories, Heritage and architectural buildings, and more. For more information, click here
  • How can I get a quote from you?
    E-mail steve@blastitcleanitpaintit.com.au or send a message through our website or call 0414-999-600
  • How do you manage risks associated with abrasive blasting & industrial painting?
    We comply to the necessary and appropriate Australian Industry Standards and Codes of Practice.
  • Does your company carry insurance?
    Yes, we carry Public Liability & Workers Compensation.
  • How can I give you feedback?
    Through our website.
  • Do you work interstate / overseas?
    Yes. Blast It Clean It Paint It has successfully carried out projects both nationally and internationally . We have also carried works out overseas.
  • What is Spray Foam?
    Spray Foam is a type of insulation material that is applied using a spray gun. It is made by combining two chemicals, polyol resin & isocyanate, which react & expand when mixed together. This expansion creates a foam that adheres to surfaces & fills gaps, cracks & voids.
  • Where is the Spray Foam commonly used?
    Spray Foam Insulation is commonly used in buildings & homes to provide thermal insulation, air sealing & moisture control to protect against mould.
  • Where can the Spray Foam be applied to?
    It can be applied to various surfaces, including walls, roofs (external & internal) attics & crawl spaces. The foam creates a continuous & airtight barrier, preventing the transfer of heat, air & moisture.
  • What types of Spray Foam do we use?
    There are 2 main types but we also offer a 3rd Foam. The 2 main types are Open Cell & Closed Cell. Open Cell foam has a lower density & is more flexible, while Closed Cell Foam is denser & provides a higher level of insulation. Both types offer benefits such as energy efficiency, noise reduction & improved indoor air quality. The 3rd Foam is our Void Filling Foam used for Marine Buoyancy such as Wave Skis, Canoes& cavity filling/compartment in boats.
  • What is Spray Foam known for?
    Spray Foam Insulation is known for its excellent insulating properties & can help reduce energy consumption, utility costs & helps in the prevention of mould within moisture filled environments.
