Classic Truck Restorations, based in Califon,
New Jersey, can now provide professional and safe 'Soda Blasting'
to the classic truck and car restoration community. This new type
of surface restoration is clean and environmentally safe.
Essentially, the process involves using sodium bicarbonate (baking
soda) as an abrasive medium to safely remove old paint, rust, etc.
from metal, wood, fiberglass and other surfaces.
Using
specialized equipment, Classic Truck Restorations
can safely and quickly remove layers of paint, rust scale, and
other signs of age from a vehicle (or other items, for that matter)
without masking glass, chrome, rubber, and other trim items.
Because the baking soda is a natural, biodegradable, and water
soluble blasting medium, there is little, if any, cleanup
afterwards. Significant cleanup would be required if traditional
sand blasting were to be used.
Soda
blasting is gentle enough to remove almost any coating without
harming the surface underneath. It does not distort or warp the
underlying material and can be done wet or dry. The medium also
leaves a protective coating on the sub surface, allowing for a
period of time to elapse before a primer must be used to seal the
bare metal surface.
Sodium bicarbonate (Baking soda) media provides optimum
cleaning with no chance of redeposit or contamination.
Safe
to use on aluminum, molds, wood, glass or other sensitive
materials
Great
for engine parts, wheels, housings
easily removes carbon, grease oil, gasket material, surface
corrosion, paint, and coating from a wide variety of alloys,
metals, plastic, and composites without substrate damage or
distortion
Even
leaves hard anodized coating intact
Reduce cycle time by cleaning, degreasing, and depainting in
one step
Unlike glass beads or plastic media, baking soda requires no
pre-wash, and its water solubility allows for complete rinsing,
eliminating the risk of spent media lodgin in tight spaces and
critical passage ways.

What is Media Blasting? Media blasting is a wet or dry method using
compressed air and an abrasive media. The media is mixed with
compressed air in a hose that exits through a nozzle, developing a
very high or low pressure stream toward the work piece, removing
grease, rust, and even paint.
Why Use Sodium Bicarbonate? Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) is environmentally safe and
non-toxic to the person using the product. The product is soft, yet
effective (Mohs hardness 2.5), therefore you are able to use this
product on many different materials without scratching or damaging
the material. Other sources of media include plastic, nut shells,
and sand, but they do not leave the material with a smooth finish
like sodium bicarbonate. You can shower away years of rust with the
safest rust remover.
