Not all abrasives perform the same once the coating goes on.

Recent industry testing evaluating liquid-applied epoxy pipeline coatings found significant differences in long-term coating performance based on the abrasive used during surface preparation. The findings reinforced what experienced contractors and asset owners already know:

𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙖𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙨𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙨.

From coating adhesion durability to corrosion resistance, surface preparation decisions made before the coating is applied can have a measurable impact on long-term asset protection.

That's why MineralTech 𝗘𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗱 𝗕𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁® continues to be trusted for demanding pipeline, marine, shipyard, and industrial applications. Our magnesium silicate abrasive is engineered to deliver the consistent surface profile, productivity, and cleanliness today's coating systems demand.

Performance You Can Measure. Results You Can Trust.
