Programme

Metal Surface Preparation & Protection

A good coating starts with a clean, prepared surface. The programme covers degreasing before painting, one-step rust removal that leaves a phosphate layer, cleaning stainless steel after welding, preventing spatter during welding and protecting machined parts until shipment.

How the programme works

01
Degreasing

Spray and wipe with DT 110 or DT 302 before painting.

02
Rust and phosphating

One-step rust removal with low-foam acidic DT 152; 1/5 – 1/15 dilution.

03
Stainless steel

DT 124 PX for weld discolouration and corrosion.

04
Welding

DT 117 (1/8 – 1/15) against spatter adhesion in gas-shielded welding.

05
Protection

DT 160 protective oil during shipment and intermediate storage.
