In Service Equipment: No sandblasting required. Remove flaking rust and peeling paint. Break all blisters larger than 25mm (one inch). Remove all standing water. Clean up all debris and silt. May be applied over tightly adhering rust.Residual bitumastic and asphalt coatings must be removed to leave a thickness of no more than 50 microns (0.002 inches). If surface is heavily scaled, consult your Eureka representative. For further details, see Technical Bulletin #202.4.
