Surface treatment

Mechanical Surface Preparation Treatment

At Ponto Marine Services S.A., we perform mechanical surface preparation treatment to restore and protect your structural components against corrosion and wear. This process is essential before applying protective coatings or industrial paint, especially in aggressive marine or industrial environments.

Our procedure includes:
+Initial technical inspection of the surface to identify levels of corrosion, wear, or contaminants.
+Mechanical removal of rust, deteriorated paint, grease, saltpeter, or scale using rotary brushing, sanding, abrasive discs, or percussion tools.

+Deep cleaning with manual methods or pneumatic tools, ensuring a clean surface with optimal roughness for coating adhesion.
+Application of temporary protection, if necessary, to prevent flash rust before the final coating.

This treatment is key to extending the service life of cranes, ensuring safe operating conditions, and complying with international maintenance standards.
