FAQ

Can you hit a coating spec profile? Yes, we set media and pressure to reach the surface profile your coating system calls for.

Do you prime after? We can coordinate a hold primer so prepped steel does not flash rust before coating.

Frequently Asked Questions

What surface profile can you achieve?

We match the profile your coating manufacturer specifies. Applying a high performance coating over the wrong profile voids the system regardless of how well it is applied.

Do you handle structural steel on site?

Yes, with appropriate containment. Structural steel on an occupied commercial site is exactly where wet abrasive blasting has an advantage over dry.

Can you blast and coat, or blast only?

Either. We can hand off a properly prepared surface to your coating contractor or coordinate both so the timing between blast and coat is controlled.

What happens if coating is applied over an incorrect profile?

The system fails early and the manufacturer warranty generally does not apply. Matching the specified profile is not a formality, it determines whether the coating performs.
