What does painting steel structures involve?
Painting steel structures is a complex process that begins with thorough surface preparation. The first step is abrasive blasting, known as sandblasting or shot blasting, which aims to remove all dirt, rust, and old paint coatings to obtain a clean, matte surface that provides better adhesion for new paint layers. Then, the structure is degreased to get rid of grease, oil, and other substances that could negatively affect the painting process.
After preparing the surface, anti-corrosion agents such as primer are applied to the structure, which creates a protective barrier against further corrosion. This layer also provides an excellent base for subsequent layers of paint. The actual painting is done using special industrial paints that are resistant to atmospheric conditions and mechanical and chemical damage. The most common method is spray painting, which ensures an even and smooth application of the paint.
After the paint is applied, a quality control is carried out to ensure that the coating is uniform and covers the entire surface without exception. Corrections are made if necessary. In some cases, additional protective layers, such as varnish, are applied to the painted surface, which increases the durability of the paint coating and gives the structure the desired finish.
The painting process of steel structures is crucial to ensuring their long-term protection against corrosion, which is essential for maintaining their structural integrity and aesthetics. This allows steel structures to be used effectively for many years, even in demanding environmental conditions.
