Surface preparation
Corrosion protection measures are often used on material that is already corroded. In plain language, this means that the rust that is already there must first come down, because it is very aggressive. The word corrosion comes from the Latin word corrodere, which means “to gnaw to pieces” or “to corrode”. In order to provide lasting corrosion protection, old layers of corrosion must be carefully removed. This is best done by sandblasting with corundum, melting chamber slag, steel shot or glass beads. The video shows another step in surface refinement, namely spray galvanising or metallising. In this process, zinc wire is electrically heated and applied to the surface that has been blasted to surface preparation level SA3.
