Perfect preparation for composite lacquering or painting

In the same way wet blasting perfectly prepares composites for bonding, it can also prepare composites for lacquering, painting or other coatings.
 
Wet blasting removes waxy residues, grease, and other contaminants, whilst creating a ‘wet-out’ surface to a specific Ra surface roughness that is perfect for the even application of coatings.
 

Composite surface finishing without risk of damage

Dry blasting, brush finishing, peel ply, wet and dry abrasive papers and other types of finishing can result in damage to composite fibres, that in turn can compromise the integrity of the component.
 
The danger of this is increased when operator error is taken into consideration, dry blasting for too long for example.

Preparing perfect surfaces for composite bonding

Perfect preparation for composite bonding – The reliability and strength of composite bonding is significantly improved with effective surface preparation.

Patented micro gun technology

Patented micro gun technology for the rapid efficient cleaning of multiple lines of wire – Using a common slurry feed (slurry is the mixture of water and abrasive media), the micro guns blast the slurry onto the corresponding strands of wire.

The common slurry feed results in significant operational cost savings.
