Looking to add a new service to your business? Have you considered Vapour cleaning? A vapour cleaner / vapour blaster (wet blasting machine) from RS Workshop Equipment could be one of the most profitable specialist additions to your motorcycle workshop, especially if you work on restorations, engine rebuilds, classics, custom bikes, or detailing.

What is Vapour Cleaning?
A vapour cleaner, (often called vapour blasting / wet blasting), uses water mixed with fine media and compressed air to clean metal parts. It removes corrosion, grime, oxidation, staining, old residue, and surface contamination, while leaving a smooth satin “factory fresh” finish.

How You Could Use One in a Motorcycle Workshop

1. Engine Cases & Covers

2. Carburettors & Fuel System Parts

3. Wheels, Hubs & Brake Components

4. Restoration Work

5. Pre-Assembly Cleaning


Benefits to Your Workshop

1. Premium Revenue Stream. You can charge separately for:

- Engine casing refinishing
- Carb restoration
- Wheel hub restoration
- Full restoration cleaning packages
- Many shops outsource this. So doing it in-house keeps profit with you.

2. Faster Turnaround  - Instead of sending parts away for blasting/polishing, you control timing.

3. Better Visual Results - The satin OEM-style finish often looks better than dry blasting or harsh polishing.

4. Stand Out From Competitors - Most motorcycle garages only do repairs. Few offer cosmetic metal restoration.

5. More Repeat Business - Customers restoring one bike often come back with more parts.


Benefits to Customers

1. Their Bike Looks Better - Clean engine cases and restored alloy instantly improve perceived value.

2. Saves Replacing Expensive Parts - Many discontinued motorcycle parts can be revived instead of replaced.

3. Higher Resale Value - A tidy restored engine bay may help bike sale prices.

4. Emotional Value - Owners of classics/custom bikes love original parts looking fresh again.


Vapour BLASTER machines start from as little as £1,399 plus delivery and VAT
