leads in cob-grit cleaning
LOG-PRO uses multiple proven methods to clean and restore log surfaces safely and effectively, including professional power washing, cob-grit media blasting, and glass media blasting using crushed glass. Our state-of-the-art power washing equipment delivers both hot and cold water at low or high pressure, combined with a chemical injection system to remove dirt, grime, and surface contaminants without damaging the logs.
Cob-grit cleaning is one of LOG-PRO’s specialty services, and we have been leading the log home industry in this environmentally responsible media blasting method since 1997. Cob grit provides an effective way to strip, clean, and remove paint or finishes while remaining biodegradable and safe for the surrounding environment. There is no long drying time, no water intrusion, and no risk of leaks or flooding inside the home. Cob grit can also be recycled and reused, making it a sustainable choice.
In addition to cob grit, we utilize glass media blasting when appropriate, offering precise surface cleaning with minimal abrasion. Both cob-grit and crushed glass blasting are gentler than sand and can be safely used around landscaping, gardens, windows, and nearby plants. With LOG-PRO, you can trust that every cleaning method is selected to protect your log home while delivering exceptional results.

Pros use glass cutlets make New Age Blast Media from recycled glass bottles. Crushed glass is not biodegradable and is very difficult to recycle on a job site. It has to be discarded at a disposal site; your trash man will not pick it up because of the silicon properties. That being said: it works well on Logs removing sun damaged fibers, lightly covered or faded stains. It’s a slower process and we find that you often need more on projects because of the fact it’s smaller and non-recyclable making it more costly.
We recommend Media Blasting if:
- You want to save time between removing the old finish and applying the new one.
- Your home is on or near lakes, oceans, or rivers and bay, where run-off can potentially pollute.
- You have concerns about chemicals harming plants, animals or family members.
