SWFL Media Blasters is a mobile surface-preparation specialist based in Naples, FL — we strip boat bottom paint, rust, old paint, failed sealer and worn coatings off almost anything, then prep the surface and (when you want) coat it. Our whole process comes down to three words on the truck: blast it, prep it, coat it. This page is the quick map of everything we do, from marine and automotive work to homes and commercial projects, plus the blasting methods we use to do it safely. We bring the equipment to you anywhere in Southwest Florida — Naples, Marco Island, Bonita Springs, Estero, Fort Myers, Cape Coral and Golden Gate.

Marine blasting & boat bottom paint removal

We strip years of bottom paint, barnacles, slime and failed antifouling off your hull down to clean, sound gelcoat — without burning or gouging it. Warm Gulf water builds growth and stacks up antifouling fast, and old coats eventually crack and shed. Media blasting lifts every layer in one controlled pass and leaves a lightly-profiled surface that new barrier coat and bottom paint actually grip.

We handle fiberglass and gelcoat hulls, aluminum and steel trailers, running gear, props, outdrives, trim tabs, pontoons and more. We're fully mobile to your boatyard, marina, dry-storage or driveway. See the full breakdown on our marine blasting page or our dedicated boat bottom paint removal service.

Automotive & equipment blasting

We blast cars, trucks, classics, frames, undercarriages, suspension parts, wheels, equipment and trailers back to clean bare metal — without warping thin sheet metal or filling panel gaps with grit. Florida salt air and road grime hide rust under old paint and undercoating; blasting strips it all off and exposes exactly what you're working with so your bodywork or restoration starts on a true, contaminant-free surface.

From a full restoration frame-off down to bare steel to a single rusty bracket, we leave parts clean, profiled and ready for primer, powder coat or paint. Details are on the automotive blasting page, and we also handle dedicated rust removal.

Residential blasting — pavers, pool decks, lanais & more

We restore residential surfaces around Southwest Florida homes: paver driveways and pool decks, travertine lanais, concrete, brick, stucco and wood. The Florida sun and humidity destroy paver sealer — it clouds, peels and turns white — and concrete picks up paint, mildew and stubborn stains. We strip that failed sealer, coating, paint and grime off so the surface can be cleaned, re-sanded and re-sealed correctly.

Soda and dustless blasting are gentle enough for delicate surfaces like wood, stone and pavers, with far less dust and mess than open dry sandblasting. See the residential blasting page or our specific paver sealer removal service.

Commercial & industrial blasting

We provide mobile commercial and industrial surface prep for businesses, property managers, contractors and facilities across SW Florida — structural steel, columns and beams, fleet trucks and equipment, warehouse floors, tanks, railings, parking structures and storefronts. Whether you're prepping steel for a fresh protective coating, stripping graffiti, or removing failed industrial paint, we scale the equipment to the job.

We work around your schedule to keep downtime low and keep the site clean. Learn more on the commercial blasting page, and call or text (239) 227-1768 to talk through your project.

Our blasting methods: dustless, soda & sandblasting

We're not locked into one abrasive — we pick the right media and method for your surface so we strip what needs to come off without harming what stays. Dustless (wet) blasting mixes water with the media to crush dust at the source, which makes it ideal for outdoor work, around buildings and on jobs where cleanup matters. Soda blasting uses baking-soda media that's gentle enough for thin metal, fiberglass, wood and chrome while still cutting paint and grime. Traditional sandblasting and aggressive media handle heavy rust and tough industrial coatings on steel and concrete.

We dial in media — crushed glass, soda, garnet and more — and pressure for each surface, and always test an inconspicuous spot first. Compare them on the dustless blasting, soda blasting and sandblasting pages.

How it works: blast it, prep it, coat it

Every job follows the same simple arc. First we blast it — we remove the old paint, rust, sealer, growth or coating cleanly and completely, getting into contours and tight spots a sander or pressure washer can't reach. Then we prep it — we leave the surface clean, dry and profiled to the exact texture that primer, paint, powder coat or marine coatings are designed to bond to, so the next layer actually lasts. Finally, when you want a turnkey result, we coat it with protective coatings or paint so your boat, frame, deck or steel leaves protected, not just bare.

You can hire us for the stripping and prep alone, or the full blast-prep-coat package. Either way it starts with a free on-site estimate — call or text (239) 227-1768 and tell us what you're working on.

Questions

Good to know

Almost anything: fiberglass and gelcoat boat hulls, aluminum, steel and other metals, automotive frames and parts, concrete, pavers, travertine, brick, stucco and wood. We match the media and pressure to the surface so we strip what needs to come off without damaging the substrate underneath.

We come to you. We're a fully mobile operation — we bring the rig and equipment to your boatyard, shop, home, driveway, marina or commercial site anywhere across Southwest Florida, from Naples and Marco Island up to Fort Myers and Cape Coral.

Dustless (wet) blasting adds water to crush dust at the source, which is great for outdoor and around-the-building work where cleanup matters. Soda blasting is gentle enough for thin metal, fiberglass, wood and chrome. Traditional sandblasting and aggressive media tackle heavy rust and tough coatings on steel and concrete. We recommend the right method for your job.

Both — it's up to you. We can do just the stripping and surface prep, or the full package: blast it, prep it and coat it with protective coatings or paint so your surface leaves protected. Tell us what you need when we give your estimate.

We serve all of Southwest Florida, including Naples, Marco Island, Bonita Springs, Estero, Fort Myers, Cape Coral and Golden Gate. See our service area page or call (239) 227-1768 to confirm we cover your location.

Call or text us at (239) 227-1768 with what you're working on — the boat, vehicle, surface or project and where it is — and we'll set up a free on-site estimate. Pricing depends on the size, the surface, how much buildup there is, and access. We're available Monday through Saturday, 8am to 6pm.

No, not when it's done right. We use softer media like soda or dustless blasting on delicate surfaces, dial in low pressure, and test an inconspicuous spot first. The goal is always to remove the coating or contamination while keeping the surface beneath it sound.
