The Quill Falcon Kwikblast® System is the most technologically
advanced blasting system available on the market today.
It has proven itself to be highly effective in a wide variety of marine environments, and is renowned both for its capacity and performance. Abrasive blasting using the
Quill Falcon Kwikblast® System means that coatings, corrosion and residue are
removed from surfaces in such a way that newly-applied coatings adhere better and
for longer.

The Quill Falcon Kwikblast® System successfully combines conventional grit blasting and ultra high pressure (UHP) jetting to create a precision dustless blasting system that leaves all types of marine
surfaces clean and contaminant free. It is an effective, cost-efficient means of removing contaminants and marine build up from ships, boats and yachts of all types, as well as all kinds of marine-based structures,
machinery and equipment. Using the Quill Falcon Kwikblast® System, abrasive blasting successfully removes all of the following from boat hulls and decking, and marine machinery and structures:

The Quill Falcon Kwikblast® System is extremely versatile and can be used in a wide variety of marine applications.
These include the blasting away of corrosion in order to undertake maintenance, the removal of coatings to carry out an inspection, or the removal of old or degraded residue and coatings. The result is clean surfaces that are contaminant free and profiled so that new coatings can be applied.
Versatility is the key to the success of the Quill Falcon Kwikblast® System. The volumes of air, water and grit that are used can be altered to suit the requirements of your job, as can the surface profile.
The Quill Falcon Kwikblast® System produces fast and effective results; uses 50% less grit than conventional abrasive blasting (cutting disposal costs); can blast up to 18m2 per hour; and produces up to 21db less noise than other types of blasting equipment.
The versatile, simple and highly portable Quill Falcon Kwikblast® System means that repairs and maintenance work can be carried out either in dry dock or by crew while at sea. Chlorides, coatings and corrosion are quickly and efficiently blasted away, surfaces are effectively cleaned and profiled, and as a result new protective coatings will last longer and perform more effectively.
The Quill Falcon Kwikblast® System can be used for abrasive blasting on all types of marine vessels and structures, such as:.

Abrasive blasting is the ideal preparation for repainting or re-coating
Eliminating dirt and debris, rust and mill scale, and removing paint and old layers of coating are essential preparation before re-coating a marine vessel or structure. If this preparation is substandard, then new coatings will not adhere as effectively or for as long as they should.
Abrasive blasting using the Quill Falcon Kwikblast® System cleans and profiles all types of surface so that protective coatings stay in place for longer.
Surfaces are profiled to SA 21/2, HB 21/2, SB 21/2, NACE VIS 9 and WAB 6/10 almost immediately, leaving them clean and contaminant free.
This means that abrasive blasting is not only ideal for marine vessels and equipment, but also for a wide range of other industrial, construction and mining structures and machinery, including:• offshore rigs• drilling platforms• blast tanks• storage tanks• process tanks• pipelines• decks and platforms
Quill Falcon Australia was founded in 2009 and is the sole importer and
distributor of the Quill Falcon Precision Dustless Kwikblast® System
