Paint & Powder Stripping
We strip organic coatings from hooks, racks, fixtures, and high-value reject components. Our processes remove even tenacious coatings from a wide variety of metallic substrates.
With the advent of electrostatic painting, Kolene adapted molten salt cleaning to strip hooks, racks, and fixtures. Painters quickly discovered the benefits of increased transfer efficiencies and reduced rejects with clean racks.
Kontinuous™ systems strip racks in-line on the finishing line. Treatment time depends on the coating. Learn more about how Kontinuous in-line stripping can improve your paint line quality and increase productivity by visiting Hook, Rack & Fixture Stripping.
If you need to salvage and recoat high-value components, consider Kolene® Recover®. We invented Recover, a mid-temperature organic fluid that removes cured paint, powder, and e-coat from a wide range of metallic substrates. With the Recover process, rejected parts come out clean and ready to recoat. For additional information, please visit Reject & Salvage Stripping.
Two ways to strip paint and powder
Have parts like these? Tell us the alloy, the coating or residue, and your volume, and we will recommend a salt, a system, or processing at our Detroit plant.
