Frequently asked
Why pay more for dustless?
Dustless is typically 15–25% more than dry blasting, but you save on plastic containment, cleanup, and downtime. For occupied buildings it usually nets cheaper overall.
Will it rust the metal underneath?
Reputable crews add a rust inhibitor to the water — surfaces stay flash-rust free for 48–72 hours, plenty of time to coat.
Is it safe around plants and pets?
Yes. The water suppresses media and most contractors use eco-friendly abrasives like recycled glass or garnet.
