Plastic media is a fast and cost effective alternative to traditional chemical and hand stripping for paint, dirt and grease.
Unlike chemical strippers, plastic media is biodegradable, non-toxic and non-polluting. Plastic media offers low breakdown rate, low dust and accuracy of granulometry with exact particle size control and distribution.
Plastic media can be used with wet and dry airblast equipment at pressures of 15-40 psi (1-3bar).
