BRASS & MONUMENT CLEANING & COATING |
Our cleaning &
coating capabilities have become highly specialized as
our company has grown. Today, one of our most popular
services is the cleaning & coating of brass as well as
the structures on which it is often attached (in the
above graphic, the brass seal & lettering are located on
a monument outside a local county's courts'
building--this outside structure sits immediately
adjacent to a high-traffic, automobile thoroughfare and
is routinely subjected to all the oxidizing chemicals & components typically found in automobile &
diesel
exhaust, etc.).
Energy Solutions
was originally asked to clean & coat
the structure due to the anti-graffiti
characteristics of our siloxane coatings. But when told that our coatings also prevented the
tarnishing of brass and other ferrous metals the
customer was even more anxious to proceed and the
results were dramatic. The "After" picture
depicted above shows the way the monument looks today
nearly 3 years after we originally cleaned & coated the
entire structure,
brass, etc. (the structure's pedestal is made up of a
brick base topped with white aggregate; the brass seal &
lettering are attached thereto.)
The coating characteristics reflected in these
pictures--resistant to weather, graffiti and other
environmental contaminants; as well as highly effective
in preventing surface oxidation (tarnish), etc--apply to all non-ferrous
metals--copper, aluminum, brass, zinc, stainless steel, nickel,
etc. In all
cases, once cleaned & coated the surface is
completely isolated from the environment and its harmful
effects.
