A bead blaster is a type of cleaning device used to remove paint, rust, and other contaminants from surfaces. It operates by propelling tiny abrasive beads at high speed against the surface of the object being cleaned. This process, known as bead blasting or abrasive blasting, effectively strips away unwanted coatings and residues, preparing the surface for refinishing or further treatment.
Bead blasters are commonly used in automotive restoration, industrial cleaning, and maintenance applications where thorough surface preparation is essential. They are favored for their ability to clean without causing damage to the underlying material, making them versatile tools in various industries.
