The method used to process metals is specifically determined based on the nature, the properties, the alloy and the characteristics of the type of metal.
Of course, we also always take into account your wishes regarding the final result.
The factors:
- The nature of the contamination
- The alloy of the basic material
- How the product is used
- The thickness of the material
- The desired quality
STRIPPING PAINT FROM STEEL
TCI Cleaning’s paint stripping or cleaning processes are extremely suitable for use on products made of carbon steel. If desired, the products can then be pickled to remove rust. The products will then remain free of rust for a short period. If required, we can lengthen this period by applying a preservative.
STRIPPING PAINT FROM GALVANISED STEEL
Of course, we can also strip paint from galvanised steel. The process will not damage the zinc layer. However, it is possible that you prefer the zinc layer to be ‘cracked’ to remove the zinc. TCI Cleaning can also carry out this zinc ‘cracking’ for you.
STRIPPING PAINT FROM STAINLESS STEEL
Your stainless steel parts can also be stripped of paint by TCI Cleaning. The properties of the material make the product both thermally and chemically suitable for treatment. Moreover, stainless steel parts have the advantage that they require little to no post-treatment after the paint has been stripped..
STRIPPING PAINT FROM ALUMINIUM
Aluminium products are often expensive. Therefore, their reuse is of course very much desired. A chemical process is often used to clean or strip aluminium. This process does not damage the metal. Moreover, aluminium does not need to be preserved after being treated.
OTHER METALS
Due to their characteristics, specialised methods can also be used to clean or strip numerous other metals. Some examples are titanium, magnesium, cast iron, cast aluminium, copper, brass, tin, etc. When in doubt about your materials, please contact us!
