A Mobile Option for Large and Fixed Surfaces

Some items are difficult to transport. Others are attached to a building, embedded in concrete, or too large to fit on a trailer. Mobile sandblasting allows Ultra Blast & Strip to complete the work at the item or surface location.


Our mobile setup includes a truck, a trailer, blasting equipment, a blast pot, and an air compressor. We select blasting media based on the material and the work needed, including sand, recycled glass, or crushed walnut shell.


Mobile blasting can be a useful option for:

  • Large trailers and trailer frames
  • Metal railings, gates, and structural components
  • Farm and job-site equipment
  • Painted concrete walls and foundations
  • Brick, block, and masonry surfaces
  • Graffiti removal projects
  • Wood decks, barns, railings, and beams
  • Commercial and municipal property features


For mobile service, the work area should be reasonably open and accessible. Whenever possible, our trailer needs to be able to get within about 100 feet of the blasting location.

Kalamazoo Sandblasting Services

Rust Removal for Metal

Rust can spread when metal is exposed to moisture, humidity, weather, or road salt. Ultra Blast & Strip removes rust from structurally sound trailers, railings, equipment, frames, cabinets, fire pits, and metal structures.



Sandblasting can reach corners, joints, seams, and uneven areas that are difficult to clean by hand. The completed surface is left with a clean bare-metal finish that can be painted or coated afterward.

Paint Removal & Metal Stripping

Old paint often cracks, peels, or builds up in layers over time. We remove unwanted paint and coatings from metal, concrete, masonry, and select wood surfaces.


Blasting is especially helpful for surfaces with grooves, tight corners, textured material, or detailed shapes where manual removal would take significant time.

Concrete & Masonry Cleaning

Ultra Blast & Strip blasts structurally sound concrete, brick, block, stone, and masonry. This service can remove paint, stains, graffiti, grime, old coatings, and surface buildup.



Concrete and masonry blasting typically leaves a clean, matte finish with more of the material’s natural texture visible.

Graffiti Removal

Graffiti can be removed from metal, concrete, brick, block, and masonry surfaces. Sandblasting strips the unwanted coating and exposes the original material underneath.


The final look depends on the condition of the original surface, the type of coating, and how long the graffiti has been in place.

Wood Surface Sandblasting

Wood projects require a more controlled approach. For sound wood, we can use crushed walnut shell media to remove old paint, stain, moss, algae, and surface grime.


Eligible projects may include decks, railings, barns, beams, log structures, and wood siding. We may decline wood with major rot, loose material, or poor structural integrity.

A Better Alternative to Hand Work and Harsh Chemicals

Hand sanding, wire brushing, scraping, and chemical stripping can be useful for small areas. However, larger surfaces often take more time and can be difficult to clean evenly.


Mobile sandblasting can help when you need to:

  • Remove multiple layers of old paint
  • Strip rust from a trailer or metal structure
  • Clean detailed railings, corners, and seams
  • Remove graffiti from masonry
  • Strip coatings from concrete
  • Restore a surface instead of replacing it
  • Avoid using chemical stripping products around the property


Ultra Blast & Strip removes the agreed-upon surface material. We do not provide repairs, disassembly, reassembly, painting, sealing, staining, powder coating, or other finishing services after blasting.

What to Know Before Your Kalamazoo Sandblasting Appointment

Send Photos Before Scheduling

Photos make it easier to determine whether your surface is a good fit for blasting. Please include photos of the item or area, a short description of what you want removed, and the project address.

Every Job Starts With a Test Blast

Before treating the full surface, Ultra Blast & Strip completes a test blast in a small, less noticeable area. This confirms the blasting settings, abrasive, and expected result.

Expect Dust & Noise

Sandblasting is noisy and dusty. Before we arrive, remove items you do not want covered in dust and close nearby windows. We cover nearby surfaces as needed to help reduce ricochet damage.

Surface Condition Matters

Blasting is intended for structurally sound surfaces. We may decline projects involving excessive rot, severe corrosion, hazardous material, or weak material that could fail during blasting.

Plan for the Next Step

Sandblasting leaves a clean, matte, or textured surface. If you plan to paint, seal, stain, or coat the surface, arrange for that work after blasting. Bare metal should be painted or coated soon after blasting to help prevent new rust.

Ultra Blast & Strip serves Kalamazoo and nearby communities within our normal service range from Hastings. We generally work within about one hour of Hastings and confirm travel availability before scheduling.
