The final step in the process of manufacturing asphalt plant equipment is sandblasting and painting. Sandblasting uses blasting equipment that abrades the surfaces of metal or hard-composition objects to remove adhering scale, sand, paint, grease, tar, rust, and dirt, so the surface can be painted and refinished. Painters use specific equipment that primes and coats the surfaces of both large pieces of equipment and smaller individual parts.
