Sand-Blasting
Sand-Blasting
All corrosion products on the panel must be removed before painting. Sand-blasting is a very effective method of doing this, particularly for deep rust
damage.
Sand blasting involves spraying aluminum oxide at a very high pressure on the damaged area resulting in a clean panel surface.
The advantage of blasting is that inaccessible places can be cleaned and a soft transition from the panel to the paint is obtained. Sanded surfaces also
provide a good base for applying tin filler as well as paint.
Volvo stock a complete set of equipment needed for sand-blasting (998 6410-0), with a variety of nozzles.
