The most common application of RPR is as an enabler of conventional methods. RPR does the heavy lifting, removing heavy coatings in bulk, while abrasive blasting cleans up the remaining residue and provides a profile to the steel. On most projects this combined approach makes blast and paint many times more effective, reducing blast hours, garnet consumption and waste volumes. Where specifications still call for conventional cleanliness standards, RPR serves as a highly effective enabler, rapidly removing bulk coatings and minimising the effort required for final blasting or cleaning in preparation for recoating.
