Environmentally friendly Sodablast rapidly removes graffiti, chewing gum, lines and oil stains.

Sodablast is amazing for cleaning sensitive materials that would definitely be damaged by pressure washing.

Line Removal

Current methods of line removal include abrasion using a shot blast system or burn off, however both systems present serious problems of dust and fumes that can be hazardous to workers, bystanders or passing vehicles. Shot blasting is not water-soluble so clean up has to be done periodically to collect accumulating residue. In addition both methods damage the road surface, thus speeding breakdown and the need for costly repairs or repaving. Shot blasting also creates minor depressions in which water can accumulate, freeze and create hazards to motorists.

Sodablast uses a harmless abrasive (food grade baking soda) that has little or no impact on the environment. Simple bunding over storm drains and such like will catch the spent media and allow water to pass through. There is no abrasion to the surface, so no water accumulates. There is no threat to passing vehicles, bystanders, or workers.

Car Parks/Playgrounds/Public Buildings & Areas

Sodablast is very effective at removing oil, grease, paint and other contaminants from car parks and other public property. When just a trickle of water is added to the soda flow, it activates sodium bicarbonates natural cleaning properties. This allows it to break down oil and grease easily rather than just push it around like a pressure washer does. No chemicals needed and only uses a fraction of the water.

Sodablast will not damage the original surface so is effective at contaminate removal on softer substrates such as sandstone, marble, timber or PVC.
