APEX Sandblast and Powder Coat

 
Apex Sandblast and Powder Coat, founded in 2024 by Mechanical Engineer Karl Horst, is based on James Island, South Carolina. We share a shop with a local race team and specialize in restoring surfaces with precision and attention to detail. Living in a coastal climate, we know rust is inevitable, and we’re here to make surface preparation simple and efficient.

Our mobile sandblasting service eliminates the hassle of transporting heavy projects, while our powder coating service, born from our own needs, perfectly complements it. Together, they offer a complete solution for durable, long-lasting finishes at our James Island location. Let us bring your surfaces back to life.

Do you offer pickup and delivery services?
At this time, we do provide pickup and delivery for an additional charge dependant upon the distance and size.

What is the difference between wet and dry sandblasting?
Wet sandblasting minimizes dust and is great for delicate surfaces, while dry sandblasting is more aggressive and best for removing heavy rust, paint, and corrosion—especially when keeping the surface dry is important.

We can sandblast metal, wood, concrete, fiberglass, and more. Common applications include automotive parts, boat hulls, industrial equipment, and furniture restoration.
