Restoring Farm Machinery with Sandblasting: What to Know

🌾 Why Farm Equipment Needs Restoration

Common issues we see include:

• Rust and corrosion from years outside

• Flaking paint or worn decals

• Caked-on dirt, oil, or fertiliser residue

• Surface damage that affects performance or appearance

Over time, these issues can:

• Shorten equipment lifespan

• Make machinery unsafe or non-compliant

• Lower resale value

💨 What Sandblasting Does for Farm Gear

Sandblasting strips equipment back to bare metal, removing:

• Paint

• Rust

• Scale and residue

• Weld slag or build-up

This leaves a clean surface ready for painting, powder coating, repairs, or resale.
