Quick answer

Paco's Powder Coating provides sandblasting for Athens, GA and Athens-Clarke County. We strip rust, paint and old powder coat from wheels, vehicle parts, railings, furniture and equipment down to clean metal, then powder coat in the same shop if you want. Large items can be blasted on-site. Call 937-554-6414 for pricing.

Sandblasting in Athens, Athens-Clarke County

Athens is home to UGA, historic neighborhoods and a busy restaurant and business scene. Before a new finish can last, the old one has to go.

Our blasting takes metal down to a clean, even surface so nothing underneath can lift the new coating later.

What we sandblast for Athens customers

Common blasting jobs from Athens include:

  • Wheels and brake calipers
  • Classic car and truck parts
  • Restaurant and apartment patio furniture
  • Historic railings and ironwork
  • Commercial racks, fixtures and signage frames

Our blasting process

Every job follows the same steps:

  • Plan the job. Tell us what the part is and what finish comes next, so we prep it the right way.
  • Protect critical surfaces. Anything that must stay untouched gets masked first.
  • Strip to bare metal. Our blast setup removes coatings and corrosion without chemical strippers.
  • Coat quickly. Bare steel rusts fast in Georgia humidity, so blasted parts go to coating without sitting around.

Big jobs, on-site

We blast in-house for wheels, frames, furniture and parts, and we travel for big jobs that can't move. Either way, the goal is the same: clean, bare metal ready for a lasting finish.

Blasting before powder coating in Athens

Sandblasting is the first step of every powder coating job in Athens. Clean, profiled metal is what lets the powder bond and stay put for years. Need a thin, heat-resistant finish instead? Ask about Cerakote.

Athens wheel sandblasting

Peeling paint and white corrosion under the clear coat are the most common wheel problems we see from Athens. Blasting removes all of it so the new finish bonds properly.

Bring wheels with the tires on. We handle dismount, blasting, powder coating and remount under one roof.

Questions

Sandblasting Athens FAQs

How much does sandblasting cost in Athens?

It depends on the size, condition and how much coating has to come off. Call 937-554-6414 or send photos through the form for a price.

Do you blast parts for restaurants and apartment complexes?

Yes. We blast and refinish patio furniture, railings and fixtures in batches for businesses.

Do I have to get it powder coated after blasting?

No. We can blast only and hand the part back, but bare steel rusts quickly, so it should be coated or primed soon after.

How long does sandblasting take?

It depends on the size and condition of the part. Most shop jobs are quick; call for a turnaround estimate.

Do you sandblast on-site?

For large items that can't be moved, often yes. Describe the job when you call and we'll let you know.
