Spares and Training

Once steelwork has been blast cleaned, it starts to rust rapidly; with our damp blast sand jet this happens in a matter of minutes.

Primers and Topcoats can be applied to protect the steel from corrosion.

Zinga is a one-component cold applied galvanic zinc coating. Its unique formula provides environmentally safe cathodic protection to steel comparable with hot dip galvanising, with the added advantage that it can be applied, on site, like a paint.

We also use other products, from moisture curing urethane products from MCU coatings for example, topcoats from Firwood.

Cast Iron Pillars - in a converted block of flats in Sheffield 2008, Primed with Zinga, sealed and topcoated with Intumescent (fire protection) paint.

 

A complex web of metal in an ex Aircraft Hangar - cleaned and primed with MCU Aluprime Spring 2009. (easier to see in the photo the sections that haven't been painted. To add to the complications, due to other site works - the painting had to be done at night!
