Rust
Rust removal restores metal integrity and prepares surfaces for protection.
Common methods
-
Bristle blasting: Mechanically removes rust while creating an anchor profile.
-
Sponge blasting: Cleans rust and provides controlled surface preparation with low dust.
-
Soda and abrasive blasting: Remove corrosion and scale from steel and other metals.
-
Laser cleaning: Precisely strips rust and oxides from targeted areas.
-
Chemical cleaning: Rust converters and removers treat corrosion, especially in complex geometries.
Typical applications
-
Rust removal from structural steel, beams, and supports.
-
Cleaning corroded tanks, vessels, and piping.
-
Preparing metal for repainting and protective coatings.
-
Restoring machinery, frames, and equipment parts.
-
Localized rust treatment in automotive and marine contexts.
