Bead Blasting Advantages
Bead blasting is gentle. It won’t change the part’s shape or size.
The finish looks better because it is uniform and polished.
It is much safer because it doesn’t create harmful silica dust.
Bead Blasting Disadvantages
Bead Blasting is much slower because of low air pressure, which makes it less effective in removing thick rust or old coatings.
Media like ceramic or plastic beads are more expensive than sand or slag.
