Surface Prep for Steel Coating in Muncie, IN
The importance of surface preparation cannot be overstated in steel construction. A dirty, oily, flaking, or otherwise compromised surface can significantly reduce the effectiveness of a new coating and cause adhesion failure. Surface preparation prepares the material to receive a coating, allows the new layer to adhere properly, and ensures no contaminants are introduced during installation.
Indiana Bridge offers steel surface preparation services so your material is ready to receive its coating. Our team will assess your steel’s needs and perform the most appropriate cleaning method to remove contaminants before applying a corrosion-resistant coating.
