Superoxalloy vs. powder coat: Removing tough coatings in a matter of seconds

The Challenge

A painting contractor was hired to clean, repair and recoat specialized hanger hooks coated with a thick and extremely hardened powder coat. They were forced to bake and hand-scrape the hooks to remove the coating because abrasive blasting was not effective. Even silicon carbide could barely dent the coating after minutes of blasting in a small area.

The 10X Breakthrough

As seen in the photos, 10X superoxalloy abrasive immediately cut through the thick powder coating and left a clean, profiled surface ready for recoating. The entire hook was cleaned and restored in 19 seconds.
