Sandblasting Interior Brick and Beams Video

Bob points out the newly clean beams that were sandblasted to remove more than a century of industrial grease and grime. The exposed surfaces in the interior will become an integral part of the new interior design. Vila points out that the sandblasting which was done on the interior brick would do irreparable damage if it were done on the exterior bricks as it creates a porous surface that would not withstand the weather.
