Why is applying paint directly over mill scale a waste of time?
Any paint or protective coating applied over any metal surface with the mill scale not removed and surface properly prepared is wasted, since the paint/coating will come off with the mill scale as moisture-laden air gets under the mill scale breaking off of the steel, taking the coating/paint with it. Once the protective coating is breached moisture gets in and rust takes over.
EcoBlast (Guyana) prep and coat metal surfaces of ANY SIZE AND DESIGN correctly. Preparing the surface and applying the coatings CORRECTLY by international NACE/SSPC standards, saving you money and ensuring your metal surface project stays in pristine condition for many years.
For existing metal surfaces, railings/grill work we can restore it onsite or at our Durban Street workshop.

Mill scale is formed on the outer surfaces of all metal plates, sheets or profiles when they are being manufactured by the rolling of red hot iron or steel in rolling mills.
The presence of mill scale on the metal surface is a hindrance to applying paint, which adheres poorly to scale left on the surface of the metal. Left in place, the scale will eventually chip and break the paint coating's surface, allowing moisture to pe*****te and greatly reducing the life of your coating. It is wasteful to apply a protective coating over a workpiece (gates, fences, etc.) covered with mill scale.
EcoBlast removes the mill scale and other contaminates from all metal surfaces and applies the coating of your choice professionally extending the life and appearance of your metal work 10 fold.
