Our customers AUTO 4, based in Italy specialise in the restoration of Subaru rally cars, just like this Impreza P1!

Before they were introduced to the Aquablast, the company would use a dry blasting process, however the results were far from what they had desired. Keep reading to watch their video. 

Once they had witnessed the capabilities of the Aquablast, they instantly knew that to be able to achieve the best of the best results, this was a piece of technology they needed within their workshop.

Auto 4 noticed a second hand Aquablast 1215 cabinet for sale and didn’t think twice about purchasing it. Thanks to the Vixen, they are now able to achieve a consistent, smooth and satin finish which in the owner Matteo’s words is “incredible”.

They use the machine to process all things aluminium, such as engine blocks and heads, ancillaries parts, suspensions and much more.

The Aquablast 1215 is the medium-sized cabinet in the range and a popular choice for automotive restoration. The pristine finish is created through flow of water mixed with abrasive, which results in a finer finish. This is due to the water acting as a lubricant meaning no media is impregnated into the component.

The process is completely dust-free as there is no break up of media, unlike dry blasting where the finish is produced by sheer force of abrasive impact. The machine also features our most popular optional extra, the closed loop system.

Having this extra means the machine can operate without the need for a mains water supply and the need for a drain close by. The system recycles the water and is then used for re-use for the window wash and rinse gun.

Time after time, the company are amazed by the superior results. The machine assists in helping Auto 4 provide a first-class and professional service to their customers. They now find that other workshops local to them are bringing their parts to be blasted in the Aquablast.

The machine has helped them provide a service that no one else in their area can compare to. Watch their video below:
