experience in the industry
Concrete Surfaces

All contact surface must be free from oil, grease, free stand-
ing water or any loosely adherent material. Concrete surfaces
should be cut back to a sound base, if needed

All dust must be removed and bolt holes or fixing pockets blown
clean of any dirt or debris.

Steel surfaces

All steel surfaces should be shot blasted free of rust and flaky
mill scale. Cleaned surfaces may be protected by the applica-
tion of Nitoprime 28.
