Mobile Rust & Weld Cleanup Service
Offer on-site surface prep for railing installers, fabricators, and trailer shops. Use the 24-grit zirconia discs to remove mill scale, spatter, and weld discoloration fast, then quick-lock to a finishing disc. Sell per-foot or per-joint pricing with premium rush fees enabled by rapid disc changes.
Reclaimed Metal Home Goods Line
Produce planters, shelf brackets, hooks, and signage with a signature ground finish. The reinforced fiber backing withstands edge work on brackets, while extended-life abrasives keep costs predictable. Batch process parts and market the distinctive directional grind aesthetic online and at markets.
Shop-Assist Contract Grinding
Partner with small fab shops to handle their heavy stock removal and prep. Set up a portable grinding station and bill by hour or piece. The quick-lock system minimizes downtime between operations, letting you hit chamfers, blend welds, and prep surfaces for coating efficiently.

Industrial Scrap-Metal Wall Art
Turn salvaged steel into textured wall panels and silhouettes. Use the 4-1/2 in, 24-grit zirconia discs to strip mill scale fast, shape contours, and lay directional grind patterns. The reinforced fiber backing holds up when feathering edges, and quick-lock swapping lets you move between discs to create layered textures before clear-coating.
Sculpted Wood Texture Panels
Create dramatic, carved-looking textures on softwoods and hardwoods for accent walls or headboards. The aggressive 24-grit zirconia removes stock quickly to make scallops and waves; then swap discs via quick-lock to refine or blend. Finish with stain and oil to make the high/low grain pop.
Live-Edge + Steel Fusion Furniture
Build tables or benches with welded steel bases and live-edge tops. Use the discs to clean welds, chamfer edges, and give the steel a uniform brushed finish. The extended-life zirconia excels at heavy stock removal on brackets and legs, while quick-lock changes speed up moving from cleanup to finishing passes.
Upcycled Tool Restoration Display
Refurbish rusty wrenches, axes, and garden tools into display pieces or functional sets. The zirconia discs rip through rust and pitting, smooth peened surfaces, and blend grind lines quickly. Add a patina or clear coat for a vintage-industrial look and mount them on reclaimed wood backers.
