Roof Parapet Paint Removal by Blast Cleaning

Commercial

Concrete roof parapet with failed flaking paint before blast cleaning
Before: Concrete roof parapet with failed flaking paint before blast cleaning
The same roof parapet stripped back to bare concrete after blast cleaning
After: The same roof parapet stripped back to bare concrete after blast cleaning
Surface and material
Concrete roof parapet
Existing condition
Failed, flaking paint coating across the full length of the parapet.
The problem
The existing coating had lost adhesion and could not be overpainted — any new system applied over it would have failed with it.
Method used
Abrasive blast cleaning at a pressure matched to the concrete substrate.
Work completed
Surrounding roof surfaces protected, coating stripped back to bare concrete, spent abrasive and coating debris collected for disposal.
Result
Clean, keyed concrete parapet handed over ready for a new coating system.
