Automated Shot Blasting in Ogden, Utah

Advanced Surface Preparation

Expanded capabilities for preparing steel parts—helping your next coating start with a clean, properly prepared surface.

A lasting finish starts with a properly prepared surface.

Our new automated shot blasting system removes rust and mill scale from steel parts, preparing them for powder coating or liquid coating.

At Powder Coatings of Utah, we continue to invest in equipment that strengthens our capabilities and helps us serve manufacturers and fabricators across Utah and the Intermountain West. This addition supports controlled, consistent surface preparation as part of our complete metal finishing process.

How Automated Shot Blasting Works

Shot blasting uses steel shot propelled against a metal surface to remove rust, mill scale, and other surface debris. This mechanical cleaning process prepares steel parts for the next stage of finishing.


Our automated system moves parts through an enclosed blast chamber on a roller conveyor. Inside, blast wheels direct steel shot onto exposed surfaces, while adjustable settings help control the cleaning process for different project requirements.
The result is a clean, prepared surface ready for the appropriate next steps before powder coating or liquid coating.
