Industrial Surface Solutions Since 2001

One Mobile Partner for Cleaning, Removal and Surface Preparation

Industrial equipment and facility surfaces face different forms of contamination and deterioration. Grease on production machinery cannot always be treated like corrosion on structural steel, and a detailed metal component may require a different process than a concrete loading area.

Interstate Blasting evaluates the surface, material being removed and result required after the work is complete. We then recommend a method suited to the project rather than applying the same process to every asset.

With more than 25 years in business, our team supports projects involving machinery cleaning, rust removal, coating removal, surface preparation, protective coatings and urgent industrial cleanup. Mobile equipment allows many large, fixed or difficult-to-transport assets to be serviced at the facility, equipment yard or job site.

Industrial Blasting, Cleaning and Surface Services

Dry Ice Blasting

Dry ice blasting uses compressed air to propel solid carbon dioxide pellets against compatible contamination. The pellets convert into gas after impact, so the process introduces no water and leaves no spent abrasive medium. It may be used to remove grease, carbon, adhesives, release agents and production residue from suitable machinery, tooling, molds, conveyors and processing equipment.

Media Blasting and Sandblasting

Mobile media blasting removes rust, corrosion, scale, paint and deteriorated coatings from durable surfaces. Frequently called industrial sandblasting, the process can also create a surface profile for new paint or protective coatings. Abrasive type, pressure and containment are selected according to the substrate, existing finish and required result.

Laser Cleaning

Laser cleaning provides controlled, non-contact removal of compatible rust, oxides, coatings and contamination from selected metal surfaces. The process can be focused on defined areas without directing loose abrasive media against the component, making it a potential option for tooling, weld areas, fixtures, molds and precision parts.

Industrial Pressure Washing

Industrial pressure washing uses hot or cold water to remove dirt, mud, grease, oil and general operational buildup from suitable equipment and facility surfaces. Applications may include heavy machinery, concrete floors, loading areas, equipment pads and durable exterior surfaces. Water access, drainage and runoff requirements are addressed during planning.

Industrial Cleaning

Industrial cleaning projects may involve several contaminants, surfaces or pieces of equipment within one facility. Interstate Blasting develops project-specific cleaning scopes using one or more compatible methods to address machinery, production areas, structural surfaces and difficult-to-reach components.

Industrial Painting and Protective Coatings

Industrial painting and protective coating services help protect properly prepared steel, machinery and structural components from corrosion, moisture, weather and continued use. Cleaning and surface preparation are coordinated with the selected coating system because adhesion and performance depend on the condition of the underlying surface.

Lead Abatement and Removal

Older industrial and commercial coatings may contain lead and require specialized evaluation before removal begins. Interstate Blasting plans qualifying lead-abatement projects around the material, substrate, site conditions, containment requirements and applicable handling procedures.

Industrial Emergency Services

Unexpected equipment failures, contamination events, fires and other disruptions can create urgent cleaning needs. Interstate Blasting evaluates industrial emergency requests according to the material involved, condition of the site, required equipment, project location and crew availability before establishing a response plan.

Mobile Service for Equipment-Intensive Operations

Industries We Serve

Industrial cleaning and surface preparation affect everything from production reliability to coating performance. Interstate Blasting works with organizations that need professional service for fixed machinery, structural steel, heavy equipment and other assets that cannot be handled effectively through ordinary cleaning.

Manufacturing and Metal Fabrication

Manufacturers and fabrication facilities use blasting and cleaning to remove production residue, prepare machinery for maintenance and strip corrosion or failed coatings from steel. Work can be coordinated with production schedules, repairs and coating projects.

Food, Beverage and Ingredient Processing

Processing and packaging equipment may accumulate grease, carbon, powders, adhesives and recurring production residue. The proposed cleaning method must be reviewed against the equipment, sanitation program and facility procedures.

Agriculture and Agribusiness

Agricultural machinery, processing equipment, implements and material-handling systems are exposed to soil, moisture, grease and seasonal use. Mobile service allows many large assets to be cleaned or prepared at the farm, equipment yard or processing facility.

Transportation, Logistics and Heavy Equipment

Trucks, trailers, fleet equipment, construction machinery and material-handling assets can develop road grime, grease, rust and coating damage. Pressure washing and media blasting may support different stages of cleaning, inspection and refurbishment.

Construction and Infrastructure

Contractors and infrastructure teams may require surface preparation for structural steel, concrete, tanks, railings, fabricated components and weather-exposed equipment. Project planning can be coordinated with repairs, new coating application and other trades.

Municipal, Utility and Commercial Facilities

Public works departments, utilities, warehouses and large commercial operations may need cleaning or surface preparation for equipment, maintenance areas, structural components and exterior assets. Mobile service brings the required equipment to qualifying locations.

Mobile Industrial Blasting and Cleaning Across the Midwest

The Process Should Fit the Surface

Project-Specific Solutions From an Experienced Mobile Team

Interstate Blasting does not approach every project with one machine or one method. Our capabilities include dry ice blasting for compatible production residue, media blasting for substantial corrosion and failed coatings, laser cleaning for selected precision areas, and pressure washing for surfaces that tolerate water.

That range is valuable when a project involves several materials or stages. Equipment may need washing before abrasive preparation, steel may require blasting before a protective coating is applied, and detailed components may call for more controlled treatment than the surrounding structure.

Before mobilization, our team defines the surface, contaminant, desired result, work area and facility responsibilities. We also consider access, utilities, containment, ventilation, cleanup and coordination with ongoing operations. This planning gives the customer a clearer scope and helps ensure the selected process supports what needs to happen after the surface is cleaned or prepared.

With more than 25 years in business and mobile service across Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Michigan and Minnesota, Interstate Blasting provides one experienced point of contact for industrial cleaning, removal, preparation and coating-related work.
