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.

Hydro Blasting Melbourne — Completed in Our Heidelberg Facility
Blastoff Surface Cleaning & Protective Coatings provides specialist hydro blasting in Melbourne, carried out exclusively in our controlled workshop in Heidelberg West.
Hydro blasting (sometimes called wet blasting or vapour blasting) uses pressurised water mixed with ultra-fine media to gently polish, clean, and refine surfaces.
- Unlike aggressive blasting methods, hydro blasting is a non-destructive cleaning process, making it ideal for:
- Soft metals
- Precision-machined components
- Detailed engine parts
- Motorcycle restoration
- Housings, castings, brackets, carburettors, intakes
- Parts where structural integrity or tolerances must remain exact
- Our in-facility setup ensures:
- Strict water & media control
- Consistent satin-like finishes
- Zero risk of warping or surface damage
- Environmentally responsible processing
Hydro blasting is widely used in automotive, mechanical, marine, manufacturing, motorsport, and restoration industries across Melbourne.
Common Items We Hydro Blast
- Carburettors, throttle bodies & intakes
- Motorbike engines & alloy housings
- Aluminium castings & stainless-steel parts
- Small machinery components
- Marine parts & corrosion-sensitive items
- Intricate mechanical parts with internal passages
If your project requires removal of paint, coatings, or rust, see our separate Abrasive Blasting page. Hydro blasting is a finishing and cleaning process, not a stripping method.
