Soda Blasting is a form of media blasting in which sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) is used to gently clean and restore surfaces, and because the media is so soft it is considered to be a non-destructive media blasting method. Soda Blasting, although widely accepted as a solid alternative to “sandblasting” when substrate profiles must be left unaltered, finds it’s most effective uses in cleaning & restoration applications where odour absorption is required, or when used in food-safe environments. Since the adaption of Vapour Blasting technology, EcoJet employs the use of Soda Blasting quite sparingly especially when debris field containment is required or when working near vegetation that can be killed by the causticity of sodium bicarbonate.
