Yellow pine, pitch pine and oak can be blasted to remove years of dirt and grime to show the true colour of the wood. The king post trusses shown are pine, whilst the perlins are oak - usually reclaimed from old sailing ships. Some are hundreds of years old, I have seen 1/2 inch musket balls buried deep in some of the historic timbers!  

 
 

Here is a before and after photograph of a green oak conservatory which we blasted for a client in Poynton.    Mistakes made when blasting green oak can be disastrous and irreversible.    We can offer 20 years experience in this industry to ensure your project is perfect.
