Pulsed laser cleaning removing rust from metal surface
Bay 02: Non-contact pulsed laser ablation leaving virgin bare steel with zero dimensional loss.
Bay 02 • $165/hr ($60 Setup)

Virgin Bare Metal Without Sandblast Grit or Substrate Loss

Sandblasting embeds grit into pores, warps thin sheet metal, and creates toxic cleanup. Chemical dip tanks delay jobs for days. Pulsed laser ablation vaporizes oxidation, mill scale, oil, and coatings instantly—leaving precision weldments and machined surfaces spotless.

Ideal Central Texas Applications

  • Pre-weld mill scale & oxide removal on stainless/aluminum assemblies
  • Classic car frames, cast-iron blocks & suspension hardware
  • Industrial mold, die & fixture carbon-buildup restoration
  • Selective coating/powder removal without masking adjacent precision bores
Frequently Asked Questions

Technical & Delivery Answers

Does pulsed laser cleaning damage or thin the underlying metal?

No. Unlike sandblasting or grinding, pulsed laser ablation selectively vaporizes rust, mill scale, paint, and grease without gouging or changing part dimensions.

What parts can you laser clean for Austin customers?

Corroded weldments, automotive/classic restoration frames, mold tooling, structural weld joints, and parts needing baked powder coat stripped cleanly.
