Bead blasting or bead cleaning has been around for several decades. It has been used extensively in the auto industry to remove paint from metal. Although the process is the same as "sand blasting", using glass bead is not as abrasive to the sub-surface.
The glass beads are microscopic ball bearings of glass. They are very small grains of sand which are heated. When melted, they form into spheres and are then cooled to stay in their spherical shape. As small mass ball bearings, they can remove unwanted superficial debris from rather delicate surfaces, like swiming pool tile.
Tile Savers of Nevada uses only the smallest beads possible to perform the job. This guarantees the best results. Even with glass bead cleaning, in the hands of the wrong person with too large a bead and too much pressure, tile can be ruined. We have cleaned hundreds of pools and know exactly the right conditions to insure quality.
