THE APPLICATION OF AUTOMATIC BLAST TREATMENT METHODS IN CLEANING, CONDITIONING TEXTURING AND STRIPPING AS A PREPARATION OF SURFACES FOR VARIOUS COATINGS IS DISCUSSED. OPERATING PRINCIPLES OF AIRBLAST AND TURBINE-BLAST DELIVERY SYSTEMS ARE BRIEFLY REVIEWED, THE SURFACE MODIFICATION EFFECTS OF SHOT AND GRIT MEDIA ARE DESCRIBED, AND THE CAPABILITIES OF MORE RECENTLY DEVELOPED BLAST MATERIALS ARE INTRODUCED. THE IMPORTANCE OF LABORATORY TESTING AND FOLLOW-UP COATING TEST EVALUATION IS EMPHASIZED AS THE BASIS FOR DECISIONS ABOUT MEDIA AND BLAST PROCESS PARAMETERS.
