A pressure blasting machine is used to spray walnut shell under pressure through a nozzle to clean a surface. Walnut shell is gentle enough to use in cosmetics as a common abrasive in face scrub. Walnut shell for cleaning Walnut shell has many industrial uses due to the soft abrasive quality. Walnut shell is used to blast clean and polish most types of soft metals, glass, stone, plastic, fiberglass, and wood. Walnut shell can remove paint in a process comparable to sand blasting. It can be used on plastic, metal, alloy die casting, and electronics. It cleans automotive parts, aircraft engines and turbines. Walnut shells will restore steel, brick, stone, concrete, and wood. It serves as a fine gem stone polisher when used in a tumbler. How does walnut shell clean Walnut shell is used in a pressure blasting machine. The pressure comes from either electricity that runs an air compressor or water. The machine forces the abrasive walnut shell under pressure through a hose with a nozzle. Walnut shell is sprayed at high pressure on the surface to be cleaned. If the walnut shell is kept clean it can be reused. There are several models of pressure blasting machines for sale or for rent. In a tumbler walnut shell is a polisher. With vibration applied it polishes and de­burrs many surfaces. De­burring Walnut shells are used widely as a de­burring agent for electrical parts, molding, and casting. De­burring is a method of finishing ragged edges, shavings, or particles from manufactured materials that are molded, cast, trimmed, or sheared. Walnut shell is ground into several different grits. A variety of grits from extra fine to extra coarse make gives it many uses and makes it adaptable to many uses and different industries. Uses Walnut shell as a blasting agent is ideal for Graffiti removal from buildings, bridges, and overpasses because it will not damage the original surface. Walnut shell removes paint, flaws in plastic or rubber molding using special equipment that vibrates the abrasive.
