SSPC-SP 5 / NACE No. 1
White Metal Blast
Complete removal of visible oil, grease, dust, dirt, mill scale, rust, coating and foreign matter.
INDUSTRIAL SURFACE PREPARATION
INDUSTRIAL ABRASIVE BLASTING
Industrial sandblasting and steel surface preparation for structural steel and complex fabrications, completed to specified SSPC/NACE cleanliness standards.
Specified Standards
SSPC/NACE preparation levels
Shop & Field

Cleanliness and profile checks
BUILT FOR INDUSTRIAL STEEL
THE FOUNDATION OF A DURABLE COATING SYSTEM
SURFACE PREPARATION THAT PERFORMS
Industrial abrasive blasting removes corrosion, mill scale, existing coatings and other surface contaminants while producing the profile required for coating adhesion. The result is a clean, prepared substrate ready for the specified protective system.
Structural steel
Bridge components
Industrial fabrications
Complex steel assemblies
The required blast standard and surface profile are coordinated with the project specification and the coating system that follows.
SPECIFIED CLEANLINESS LEVELS
BLAST CLEANING STANDARDS
Preparation is performed to the cleanliness level required by the project specification. These commonly specified standards define how thoroughly visible contaminants must be removed.
SSPC-SP 10 / NACE No. 2
Near-White Metal Blast
A high-performance surface preparation standard allowing only limited staining on each unit area.
SSPC-SP 6 / NACE No. 3
Commercial Blast
Removal of visible contaminants with a controlled allowance for light shadows, streaks and staining.
SSPC-SP 7 / NACE No. 4
Brush-Off Blast
A light blast cleaning that removes loose material while leaving tightly adherent mill scale and coating.
A CONTROLLED WORKFLOW
FROM SPECIFICATION TO PREPARED STEEL
Surface preparation is planned as part of the complete coating system, not treated as an isolated step.
Define the Requirement
We align surface cleanliness and profile requirements with the specified protective coating system.
Prepare the Surface
Abrasive blasting removes corrosion, mill scale and existing coatings from industrial steel.
Verify the Result
The prepared surface is checked for cleanliness and profile before the next coating step begins.
SHOP AND FIELD CAPABILITY
Regal supports abrasive blasting and surface preparation at its industrial facilities and as part of qualified field-service projects. Our team coordinates preparation, inspection and the protective system that follows.
Shop Preparation
Controlled preparation for industrial steel and fabricated components.
Field Preparation
On-site surface preparation integrated with field coating work.
Inspection
Verification aligned with the specified standard and coating system.
Complete Systems
A direct path from prepared steel to coatings or metallizing.
