Automotive Stripping
Stripping paint and corrosion is a common requirement when it comes to things automotive.
Aquamax has been involved in specialised automotive restorations of many different types of vehicle ranging from trucks to rally cars.
Water jetting presents several key advantages over sandblasting. Firstly there is no heat generated so the sometimes, quite thin metal sheet does not suffer partial annealing during the process. This can soften the panels and has been known to cause sagging in roofs for example.
Another benefit is the lack of dust. Monocoque construction by its very nature creates crevices that trap dust and sand and can present problems during painting.
When it comes to commercial vehicles such as truck chassis, electrics and hydraulics can be expensive to remove during a do-up but if left in place are vulnerable to damage from abrasive blasting. Water jetting is a much better option for stripping paint and corrosion from around vulnerable items.
