Sodablast : Boat Restoration
Our technology is not only environmentally sensible but also considered by the pros in the marine industry as the best method for marine anti-fouling paint removal. Hand sanding can take days of hard intensive labour. Our process takes only hours. Sandblasting can do considerable damage to the gel-coat and hull itself. No harmful chemicals are used and we leave an even finish upon which to apply the new coating.
We do sail and power boats restoration. We mostly remove anti-fouling paint but we can also strip the entire boat of its old paint (no matter the number of coats) to the gel-coat. We offer both mobile and shop services with our blast booth that can accommodate boats up to 25 feet in length.
