SodaBlast Systems Appoints 9 New Preferred Contractors
For Eco-Friendly Boat Hull Cleaning
HOUSTON, TEXAS, NOVEMBER 12, 2008 (USA) - SodaBlast Systems today announced the appointment of nine new preferred contractors in the US for its eco-friendly boat hull cleaning systems. There are now more than 180 company-trained contractors providing SodaBlasting services worldwide.
In the SodaBlasting process, a non-destructive stream of air-driven, specially formulated baking soda under high pressure is first used to strip the antifoulant paint and open the blister. Then, to prepare the surface for repair and repainting, the affected area around the blister is feathered by split-second, swirled "micro-blasting”. This finishes the surface in preparation for repair. The entire process can be accomplished in 1/10 the time as traditional techniques, resulting in a properly prepared surface that is ready for blister repair and painting.
The new SodaBlasting Preferred Contractors are:
Advanced Stripping Technologies, Bloomfield, NM
Bob's SodaBlasting, Cape May, NJ
Chris Melvy, Ravensdale, WA

HOUSTON, TEXAS (USA) - Under an agreement with the ArmaKleen Company, SodaBlast Systems, manufacturer of eco-friendly boat hull cleaning systems, will use ARMEX®, the industry-leading baking soda-based blast media from the makers of ARM & HAMMER® Products.
“Partnering the pioneer of soda blasting equipment with the originator of baking soda media was a logical next step,” said Benny LeCompte of SodaBlast Systems.

Now they are able to provide their customers with a specially-formulated bicarbonate abrasive to remove paint and marine growth that complements the SodaBlast Systems equipment,” said Delia Downes, ARMEX product manager.
In the SodaBlasting process, a non-destructive stream of air-driven, specially formulated baking soda under high pressure is first used to strip the antifoulant paint and open the blister. Then, to prepare the surface for repair and repainting, the affected area around the blister is feathered by split-second, swirled "micro-blasting”.
