All AMP, SSPC, NACE And ISO industry standard surface preparation methods including the below:

•  SSPC SP-5,-10,-6,-7 – Dry Abrasive Blast 
•  SSPC WAB-5, -10, -6, -4 Wet Abrasive Blast (crushed glass, High pressure hot water washer, blast pot and drier system, oil free air compressor) 
• SSPC SP12 WJ4 – High Pressure Water Cleaning Standard 
• SSPC SP3 and SP11 – Power tool Cleaning Standard 

• Field Methods for Extraction and Analysis of Soluble Salts), Manufacturers Acceptable Levels NVC 3, NVS 10, NVN 10  Test using a CSN Test Kit
•  ASTM D4541 – Pull-Off Adhesion Test for Determining Suitability for Overcoating

• Road or filter cloth used for paint chip/debris containment and collection on the ground or scaffolding
• Full containment for High Pressure Water Cleaning using flow-through tarps and a sealed platform with water collection in a sump (photo above)
• Collected Wash Water is filtered and recycled via: Flocculation tank to remove solids, 25-5-1 micron filtration system to remove heavy metals and micro particles
• Filtered water is recycled for use and can be accepted by wastewater treatment facilities

• [If Abrasive Blasting]: Tape off crevice corroded and pack rusted joints and connections during dry abrasive blasting to prevent pore clogging. Remove tape once finished.
• High Pressure Water flush with salt remover. Thoroughly flush out crevice corroded joints, bearings, and connections (SSPC SP12 WJ4) NVC3, NVS10, NVN10
• Blow Dry all crevice corroded and pack rusted joints and connections with 100 psi clean, dry, oil-free air.

• Inject HRCSA Penetrant/Sealer under pressure until refusal
• Allow a dwell time of 5+ minutes, then brush out excess penetrant/sealer material
• Spray or brush in wet on wet a caulk or stripe coat of HRCSA Self-Priming topcoat over penetrant/sealer treated areas
• Ensure a minimum of 15 to 18 wet mils of HRCSA Self-Priming Topcoat in all Penetrant/Sealer treated areas
• Complete job with a full wet-on-wet spray finish on all areas to be coated to manufacturers specified DFT
