Easiest Way to Clean Pistons

Cleaning internal parts of an engine can be time consuming and a lot of elbow grease. Whether it is cleaning or restoring, these delicate parts need to be treated with care, unless the parts are being replaced. Pistons are a great example of internal engine components. How would you clean such an intricate part without damaging it and still be able to use it?

Process

Vapor blasting is the easiest way to clean pistons without damaging it. But first, what is Vapor blasting? Vapor blasting is a surface refinishing process that combines water, abrasives, and compressed air to clean and restore surfaces. This process by far is the fastest way to clean internal engine components. It does not stop there; Vapor blasting can clean all kinds of engine components such as

• Valves covers
• Crankshaft
• Intake manifolds
• Springs
• Retainers
• Injectors
• Cams
• Pistons
• Oil pans
• Even plastics

With a vapor blasting machine, you can clean your engine components faster and have the best surface finish. In the video below, it will show you the vapor blasting results of the surface finish and how fast it takes to do it. The abrasives media used in this video is fine glass beads.

Benefits of Vapor Blasting

There are many benefits when owning a vapor blasting machine. Visit our website to view our vapor blasting machine.

• These industrial cabinets are great for surface preparation and will deliver the best surface finish for all your needs.
• Wet vapor blasting does not emit dust into the air, meaning, you can work side by side with the vapor machine.
• Vapor blasting can get in between small clevises, valleys and hard to reach areas.
• Water is a huge benefit in vapor blasting. The water help keeps everything cool and lubricated. It also cleans by flow, meaning the water cleans while wet blasting so you don’t have to. Once the abrasive touches the surfaces, the water cushions the abrasives, dampening the impact.
