Vapor Honing

Unlike traditional sandblasting, which uses brute force and leaves a rough, porous surface that often needs coating, vapor honing uses water to cushion and lubricate the abrasive media. This produces a smooth, non-porous matte finish that is harder, more stain-resistant, and visually striking.

​

The process is very gentle and won’t remove any material, making it ideal for parts where tight tolerances are critical. Vapor honing works exceptionally well on aluminum components like carburetors and engine parts, restoring them to the way they looked when they first came off the factory line. It’s also safe for plastic parts, including ignition coils and other delicate components.

​

Vapor honing is especially effective for carburetor cleaning. The media flows through every circuit and surface, removing all residue and corrosion, both inside and out. This ensures your carburetors are in the best condition possible — something no other cleaning method comes close to achieving.

​

Because the process uses no harsh chemicals, O-rings and gaskets remain safe, and the water cools and lubricates surfaces during cleaning, preventing heat distortion that can occur with traditional blasting. This makes vapor honing the perfect choice for precision restoration and high-quality cleaning of all your critical parts.
