Aqua Miser

Due to federal regulations, traditional sandblasting is no longer an option. Health issues associated with silica dust generated during the sandblasting operation prompted the search for alternative methods of industrial stripping. At Aqua Miser , we have consistently been ahead of the industry, finding more effective ways to remove surface materials, for a healthier environment and to keep employees safe! Our Patented Aqua Miser Products! We started our company in 1973 in Charleston, SC, providing blasting equipment and safety materials locally . In the 1990s, we were the first company to introduce our patented Aqua Miser® BOSS and Ultra BOSS (Bicarbonate of Soda Stripping) systems which offered a revolutionary way to use high pressure water along with abrasive media. This method of injecting abrasive into the water stream eliminates the dust, reducing the personal and environmental health hazards associated with dry media blasting. Our equipment can safely, efficiently, and effec...

‘Water blasting’ is an industry term that means exactly what it sounds like. When you’re a kid, it means to “soak the competition” with a pump-action blast of pressurized water. That sounds like fun. When you’re in the business of industrial cleaning and surface preparation, water blasting means the same – only the “competition” is the unwanted surface coating, and the pressurized water stream is a thousand times more powerful. The water blasting machines we manufacture here in North Charleston, SC, can produce pressures up to 40,000 psi. The Water Blasting/Cleaning Process Our Water Blasters use a positive displacement pump, which means that with every revolution of the crankshaft, the pump will displace a given volume of water. This displaced water can flow freely out the end of an open hose, or it can be forced to flow through a very small hole or nozzle orifice. The resulting operating pressure is determined by the size of the orifice through which the water must flow. The smaller...
