The Power of Clean: Why Vapor Blasting Matters

Clean parts don’t just look good—they run better, last longer, and make maintenance easier. Whether you’re rebuilding a vintage bike or overhauling a race engine, vapor blasting is the ultimate way to restore and prep your parts.
What Is Vapor Blasting?
Vapor blasting (also called wet blasting) combines water, fine abrasive media, and compressed air to clean and finish parts gently but thoroughly. It removes dirt, corrosion, old coatings, and carbon without damaging the metal underneath.
It’s ideal for:
- Engine cases
- Heads and cylinders
- Carbs and throttle bodies
- Aluminum covers and brackets
Why Vapor Is Better Than Bead or Sand Blasting
- Non-abrasive: Won’t pit or stress aluminum
- Cleaner finish: Leaves a satin, OEM-like appearance
- No residue: No risk of leftover grit that could destroy your motor
At Crow Performance, we pair vapor blasting with ultrasonic cleaning to reach internal passages and restore full functionality—inside and out.
A Must-Have for Engine Builds
Any engine being rebuilt deserves a proper cleaning process. Clean parts allow for better sealing, tighter tolerances, and easier inspections during assembly. You’re investing time and money into performance—don’t let dirt or debris be your weak link.
