Agriculture Sandblasting WA
Diesel tanks, silos, headers, augers, trailers and machinery stripped back and prepped for coating, on your property.
In short
We bring the rig to the farm and blast tanks, silos and machinery in place. Everything needed is on board — water, media, power and containment — so gear does not leave the property and downtime stays inside your window.
What comes off
Chalked enamel, failed primer, surface rust, fertiliser staining and the scale inside tanks. Farm gear rarely fails because of the steel — it fails because the coating gave up years ago and nobody could get to it.
We come to the property with water, media, power and containment on board, so a paddock, shed or hardstand is all we need. No trucking the header to town and back.
Tanks, inside and out
Bulk diesel and water tanks are the most common job: exterior coating chalked and rusting, interior scaled. Blasting takes both back to sound steel so a tank liner or a new external system can go on and last.
Confined-space work is planned properly — access, ventilation, standby and lighting agreed before anyone goes in.
Machinery and implements
Headers, seeders, boom sprays, augers, chaser bins and trailers. Blasting reveals what the coating was hiding: cracked welds, thinned plate and previous patches. Better to see it in the shed than mid-harvest.
Where a full strip is not warranted, a sweep blast and a maintenance coat buys years for a fraction of the effort.
Timing around the season
Nothing gets blasted at harvest. Tell us your window — post-harvest, pre-seeding, or a quiet fortnight in between — and we will schedule the travel and crew around it. Regional travel across the Wheatbelt, Great Southern and Mid West is routine for us.
How the job runs
Property visit
What needs blasting, where it sits, water and power available, and your seasonal window.
Set up and contain
Tarps and screens, adjacent gear and stock protected, media capture placed.
Blast
Wet or dry to suit the item, interiors and exteriors, sound steel left behind.
Hand over
Rinse, inhibitor on bare steel, and photos of anything the coating was hiding.
Farm work is timing, access and getting it back in service
Seasonal timing
Machinery is only free between seasons, and that window is short. Headers, bars, augers and trailers are best done once harvest is off and well before seeding, so there is time for coating to cure properly rather than being pushed back into the paddock wet. If you know your window, tell us early and we batch regional trips around it.
Tanks and what is in them
Diesel, fertiliser and chemical tanks need to be drained, vented and made safe before anyone gets near them with equipment, and interiors are a confined space with their own procedure. Externally, tank steel is usually thin and the old coating chalky — a controlled strip and a proper primer buys years, a quick scuff and a topcoat does not.
On the property, not in a workshop
Most farm work happens where the machine sits, which means we bring water and power and we contain the spent media so it does not end up through a shed floor or in stock feed. Wet blasting also matters near hay, grain and livestock, where airborne dust and grit are a genuine problem. Preparing your site covers what we need on arrival.

Common questions
Agriculture sandblasting — your questions answered
Do you travel out to farms?
Yes — regional travel is routine. The rig carries its own water, media, power and containment, so we work on the property without drawing on your supply. Travel is quoted with the job.
Can you blast the inside of a tank?
Yes. Confined-space entry is planned before we arrive: access, ventilation, lighting and standby all agreed. Interiors come back to sound steel ready for a liner or coating.
When is the best time to book?
Post-harvest and pre-seeding are the easy windows. Tell us your dates and we will schedule around them — nothing gets blasted while you are trying to get a crop off.
Can you come out to the farm, or does it have to come to you?
We come to you. The rig carries its own water, power and containment, so a shed, a hardstand or a level patch of yard is enough. For small items it can still be cheaper to send them in with something else you are carting.
Can you blast a diesel or chemical tank?
Externally, yes, once it is drained and safe. Interiors are a confined-space job with its own permit and procedure, so tell us up front what has been in it and whether the inside is in scope.
Will blasting damage decals, wiring or bearings?
Not if they are protected first. Looms, sealed bearings, hydraulic rams, sensors and anything you want kept get masked or removed before we start — walk us around the machine and point out what matters.
What we need when we arrive on the property
Farm jobs go quickly when the machine is ready. This is the short list.
- The machine parked on hardstand or level ground with room to work all the way around it
- Anything you want kept — decals, sensors, looms, gauges — pointed out before we start
- Tanks drained, vented and safe, with the last contents confirmed in writing if the interior is in scope
- Somewhere the spent media can be contained and collected, away from feed, stock and watercourses
- A realistic window: blasting and coating are sequenced together, so the machine cannot go straight back to work wet
