Our Services
West Essex Metal Services offers a full range of media blasting options, including glass bead, aluminum oxide, and more. We serve local clients in Essex County and accept small parts from across the country by mail. From rust removal to surface prep, we handle each piece with care and precision.
Sand
Sand blasting is a powerful method ideal for stripping thick coatings, heavy rust, or corrosion from durable surfaces like steel. At West Essex Metal, we use this technique with precision, ensuring aggressive results without compromising the integrity of the original piece.
Bead
Bead blasting combines water and abrasive media to gently clean or finish surfaces with minimal dust and heat. Our team uses this method when surface detail and finish quality matter most, making it ideal for aluminum and softer metals.
Glass
Glass blasting is a versatile, non-destructive option that removes surface debris while preserving fine details. We use this technique to restore clarity and cleanliness, especially on precision parts and decorative metals.
Walnut
Walnut shell blasting offers a natural, biodegradable way to clean delicate metals, composites, or even wood without scratching or etching. At West Essex Metal, it's our go-to for customers seeking eco-conscious restoration that’s tough on buildup but gentle on the substrate.
Vapor
Vapor blasting combines water and abrasive media to gently clean or finish surfaces with minimal dust and heat. Our team uses this method when surface detail and finish quality matter most, making it ideal for aluminum and softer metals.
Other Options
We offer a wide array of specialty media — from plastic and corn cob to steel grit — tailored to the unique needs of each customer. Our expertise lies in selecting the right media for the material, purpose, and outcome, ensuring every job gets the treatment it truly needs.
