RECOMMENDED PRODUCT FOR SURFACE PREPARATION

HoldTight® 102

hold tight surface preparation

HoldTight® 102 completely removes all salts, resulting in no conductivity. It also removes abrasives and debris from the surface’s profile providing a better surface area to bond with coating.

HoldTight® 102 is the perfect surface preparation solution for industrial environments with steel and concrete surfaces, including but not limited to:

  • Sewer collection systems
  • Wastewater treatment plants
  • Water towers
  • Industrial treatment plants
  • Industrial tankage

HoldTight® leaves a clean surface up to 72 hours. Large areas of structures can be blasted and cleaned completely before coating application, instead of having to be coated immediately after blasting every day.

HoldTight® 102 can be worked into any blasting process to achieve a totally clean surface, with zero flash-rust and zero residue left behind. HoldTight® is a clear, simple additive with visible results, eliminating both natural and artificial contaminants. At sea HoldTight® 102 is safe to use and compatible with a wide variety of surfaces, including steel, concrete, fiberglass, aluminum, composites, and more!
