Requirement

The client's limestone treatment works was subject to severe corrosion due to its situation directly on the Gulf coastline.

Preparation

Blast cleaning to Sa2½ standard of EN ISO 8501-1 1988.

Coatings

The plant was primed with Corroless™ EPF, followed by an intermediate coat of Corroless™ RF35 (2006), and then a finish coat of Corroless™ RF65, to provide superior protection against abrasion and chemical attack. During the application period all areas were washed down with fresh water prior to overcoating in order to eliminate salt crystals that were depositing on the surface to be coated.
