Checklist: evaluation of piece before treatment
This is how you clarify material condition and requirements before choosing pretreatment and coating
Use this list before you start a new topic. It ensures that you choose a treatment that suits both the material and what the object needs to withstand.
§Material and condition
- 01What material is the workpiece — steel, aluminum, other metal?
- 02Is there rust, old paint, grease or dirt to remove?
- 03Are there damage or sharp edges requiring special attention?
§Working environment
- 01Should the item be indoors or outdoors?
- 02Is it exposed to salt moisture chemicals or heavy wear?
- 03How many years should the flooring last?
§Selection of system
- 01Which preparation does the condition and material require?
- 02Is wet or powder paint best for the task?
- 03Should there be ground under the top layer?
When everything is clarified you can proceed to pre-treatment with a clear goal for the result.
