This beautiful property in Canada features an infinity pool, with dark, glossy tile on the exterior sides where water cascades down.
Unfortunately, only three years after it was built, heavy mineral deposits had collected on the tiles, and the ribbed texture made cleaning nearly impossible.
It was time to bring in Dustless Blasting.
How the fountain wall looked when it was brand new.
After just one year, white buildup began to accumulate on the wall.
After three years, the buildup was excessive and the homeowner was desperate to remove it.
Dustless Sandblasting of Canada measured the wall to get an accurate quote.
By skirting the area with plastic sheets, they kept the surrounding property clean.
After blasting, the fountain wall looks brand new again.
In this case, the contractor chose to blast dry with walnut shell media — a gentle abrasive that won't damage the glossy surface of the tiles. Remember, Dustless Blasting makes it easy to switch between wet and dry blasting.
Because they were dry blasting in a residential area, thorough containment was very important. Skirting off the fountain wall with plastic kept the surrounding property clean.
When the property was built, the fountain wall was dark and glossy.
Lots of mineral buildup occurred in only three short years.
The fountain wall looks brand new again, and the homeowner was pleased.
