Ceramic beads create perfect surfaces with a silky matt sheen. Ceramic abrasives are in the upper bracket in terms of price, but they offer an extra ordinarily long service life.
Extremely long-lasting alternative to glass beads, however, care must be taken in terms of blasting setup due to the hardness, density and specific gravity difference. Typically run at far lower blasting pressures.
Areas of Application
