We are in the business of protecting and enhancing performance of old steel. Any corroded surface is porous and has a good surface profile. If we can find a suitable product that effectively seals corroded surface we can almost eliminate the corrosion process. We can also use the existing surface profile thus reducing the cost of surface preparation required by conventional paint systems.
Alpha Omega Coatings has developed a range of solvent free surface tolerant coatings; collectively they form the Alpha Line range.
The 3 pictures below show a typical case of badly corroded steel before and after treatment with Alpha Prime and Alpha Flex.
The Alpha Line products have no Volatile Organic Compounds, are non flammable and have no isocyanates. The Alpha Line products are ECO friendly high performance coating systems.
Typically we carry out coating installation work while the vessel is in anchorage or on voyage. The products that we use enable us to work safely without compromising quality and performance of installed coating system. This is all done without any downtime or expensive dry dock lay over. Our customers' vessel is productive and earning money.
We have developed surface preparation methods utilizing in-situ specialized equipment. Where resource and space is a premium, on board ocean going vessels and offshore installations, selecting equipment that "multi-task" becomes almost a necessity for cost effective project execution.
