PROTECT YOUR COATING! TMF Will Test Express Prep Pro vs Chlor rid…Video Review Coming This Weekend
MFG Notes: “ removes chloride, sulfate, and nitrate salt ions through an electro chemical reaction during surface application. Salt removal is crucial to extend coating life as soluble salts will draw moisture through protective coatings, causing them to blister and fail. These salts can also cause degradation of the substrate”
This weekend TheMetalFinisher.com will test two products that remove chloride, sulfate, and nitrate salts. We will first abrasive blast (Sandblast) two steel plates then apply equal amounts of each product on separate pieces of steel. We will use the recommended ratio of 100:1 (Water to Product) and wait an hour before testing the material for chloride detection. Secondly, we will leave the steel plates outside, monitored by a time lapse camera, to determine the effectiveness of each product. We will take pictures of each plate after 72 hours to show results.
Typical industries that need soluble salt removal are:
– Military coating contractors
– Fleet vehicle coaters
– Ship maintenance and recoating contractors
– DOT contractors
– Aircraft maintenance and recoating contractors
– Water storage tank maintenance and coating contractors
If either manufacture would like to send further info about their product, you can comment on this post, or send a direct message on facebook.
Our video and findings will be posted at the following websites:
