Cleaning

There are three types of cleaning processes we offer – chemical cleaning, vaqua blast cleaning and rust/corrosion removal.

Chemical cleaning is carried out on sand castings to help to remove loose sand. We put the components through various chemical etches and high-pressure rinse.

Vaqua blast cleaning is more of a cosmetic finish on cast or machined components. They are subjected to a high-pressure water mixed with a very fine glass bead, so it does not alter the tolerances on machined faces. This creates a uniform finish like a satin look. This is a process that cleans each component individually so if only one part needs cleaning the finish can be achieved.

Rust/corrosion removal cleaning can be achieved on iron, zinc, and aluminium. This cleaning process subjects the components to an acid chemical etch and rinses.
