Aluminum, brought back to life.
The cleaning method that doesn't fight the metal.
Over time aluminum collects oxidation, fuel residue, baked-on staining and environmental wear that standard cleaning can't touch. Dry media blasting is too aggressive — it pits surfaces and alters tolerances.
Vapor blasting suspends fine media in water, so it lifts contamination while preserving the original casting texture. The result is a clean, uniform, satin finish that looks factory-correct — without removing base material or opening up critical clearances.
- Vintage restoration accuracy
- Engine-rebuild preparation
- Show-quality presentation
