Soda blasting is a relatively new process first developed in the States to clean the Statue of Liberty and to ensure that all necessary environmental concerns due to its location were considered. Any use of any abrasive material to clean the surface would have been very harmful to the soft copper plates, let alone the waste in the water surrounding the statue.
Sodablast was invented because it would not only do the job while having a negligible impact on the waterways and harbour, but it was also non-abrasive.
First introduced by Roy Grantham of Soda Blast Sytems UK some four years ago, the marine industry and many other sectors have embraced the process due to its speed, cleanliness and effectiveness without damage to the surface being cleaned.
Just like the surface of the Statue of Liberty, this non abrasive action allows SodaBlasters to be used on surfaces that current popular abrasive media would damage. i.e.: aluminium, stainless steel, brick, stone, glass, fibreglass, wood, some plastics, seals, bearings, splines, radiator cores, transmission cases, and hydraulic cylinders. In some cases, using Soda Blasting dry, shutdown of electric motors and pumps is not necessary.
