Alloy Wheel repair and refurbishment can be a major money spinner for motor trade businesses, but to make the most of the opportunities on offer it is essential to have equipment that can deliver a fast job turnaround.

When it comes to preparing alloy wheels for painting then the Blastrite Alloy Wheel Shotblaster, from Ayce Systems, can provide a perfect solution, capable of prepping a wheel in just 3 minutes. Blastrite is a purpose built compact shot blast cabinet, designed for the volume wheel repairer. It has been specifically developed for blast etching alloy wheels and offers the options of pressure fed complete stripping of the old wheel coating, or suction fed light etching for pre-paint preparation.

The system makes shotblasting quick, safe and simple with application specific handling features that enable the operator to use this wheel blasting system without heavy lifting. The cabinet has a large single opening for easy access and features a tilting turntable for quick wheel mounting. The operator has a large angled viewing window made from toughened glass with a plastic anti-frosting sheet and the blast area is lit by a high intensity fluorescent light. There are extra large operator arm holes and full foot pedal operation. The cabinet also has pneumatic safety locks and a very effective dust collection and filtering system.   

The blasting process produces an even finish and allows for fast and easy preparation unlike discs sanding. It also allows for very precise localised etching if required.

Ayce Systems says that the Blastrite Alloy Wheel Shotblaster is the perfect machine for the effective, fast and safe etching of alloy wheels in a garage, bodyshop, fast fit, or any other specialist wheel repair environment. It also complements other alloy wheel repair and painting equipment in the Ayce range to offer a complete and integrated alloy wheel repair, refurbishing and refinishing solution.
