Water blasting is a method that was developed in the shipbuilding and offshore industry to effectively clean different types of surfaces for example painting.

The method is based on the work at a very high pressure with water alone. No chemical additives or abrasives such as sand is added, it is enough clean water to clean the surface. The use of water blasting requires that the surface has previously been blasted in the traditional way, as only water can provide a surface profile in the steel. Traces of paint or other coating filtered easily removed and the remaining water is thus completely harmless. Unlike sandblasting may be no dust or other pollutants in the air.

Water Blasting has an excellent ability to penetrate into the pores to remove salts, chlorides, etc.. When blasting the cap will not harm water-blasting any underlying zinc coating, but one should be careful so as not to harm falsfogarna due to the high pressure.

The advantages of water jetting is to:

* It is environmentally friendly
* It provides high surface cleanliness
* The method is economical
* The method is flexible
* It provides high efficiency
