I first had my E.H holden fully sandblasted by Peter and his dad around 17 years ago when they were a new business. Since then, I've had them do a fair amount of stripping to confidently say they are always honest , upfront and cheap. They are good family and is no wonder why they are respected in the panel and paint game. xPRIESTx2023-01-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Precision Wet Cleaning for Superior Finishes
Blastoff Surface Cleaning & Protective Coatings provides specialist hydro blasting services for Heidelberg, delivering ultra-clean, satin-like finishes ideal for delicate components, soft metals, and intricate parts.
Unlike abrasive blasting — which is designed to strip surfaces and create a profile — hydro blasting is a controlled wet process that uses fine glass media mixed with pressurised water to polish, clean, and smooth surfaces without removing excessive material.
- This makes it ideal for restorers, machinists, engineers, and automotive enthusiasts who need a finish that is:
- Moisture-free
- Non-aggressive
- Satin-smooth
- Extremely clean
- Protective against corrosion
Hydro blasting is carried out at our Heidelberg West workshop — just minutes from central Heidelberg.
What Hydro Blasting Is Used For
- Cleaning and refreshing aluminium and stainless steel
- Polishing engine components
- Restoring carburettors, manifolds, brackets, housings
- Degreasing and smoothing machined parts
- Cleaning motorcycle parts
- Preparing components prior to assembly
- Enhancing corrosion resistance with a burnished finish
Suitable Materials
- Hydro blasting is ideal for:
- Aluminium
- Stainless steel
- Alloy
- Bronze
- Copper
- Magnesium
- Titanium
- Plastic & rubber
- Many other soft or intricate materials
For heavy rust removal or deep surface profiling, consider our separate Abrasive Blasting Services — hydro blasting is used for precision cleaning, not aggressive stripping.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is hydro blasting different from abrasive blasting?
Yes — hydro blasting uses water and fine media for gentle cleaning and polishing, while abrasive blasting removes coatings, rust, and creates surface profiles.
Can you hydro blast parts for Heidelberg customers?
Yes — we service Heidelberg, Heidelberg Heights, Heidelberg West, Rosanna, Ivanhoe, and surrounding suburbs.
Is hydro blasting safe for aluminium?
Yes — it’s one of the safest cleaning methods for aluminium and other soft metals.
Do hydro blasted parts need coating afterwards?
Often they do not, as the process produces a sealed finish. However, we offer optional protective treatments like Phosphating.
