Precision Wet Blasting for Delicate Components
Blastoff Surface Cleaning & Protective Coatings provides specialist hydro blasting services for Greensborough, ideal for customers who need a clean, smooth, and refined finish without abrasion damage.
Hydro Blasting (also known as wet blasting or vapour blasting) uses a mixture of pressurised water and ultra-fine glass media to gently clean and polish surfaces.
It is NOT a replacement for abrasive blasting — instead, it serves a different purpose:
- Hydro Blasting = polishing & cleaning
- Abrasive Blasting = stripping & surface profiling
This makes hydro blasting perfect for soft metals, precision components, and intricate parts where maintaining shape, tolerances, and detail is essential.
Our workshop in Heidelberg West is only minutes from Greensborough, serving customers across Montmorency, Watsonia, Briar Hill, St Helena, and the broader Banyule region.

- Engine components (carburettors, intakes, throttle bodies)
- Motorcycle parts & aluminium housings
- Small intricate components
- Marine parts & corrosion-prone items
