What does laser cleaning surface prep meet as a standard?

Vantix laser cleaning systems, both pulsed and continuous, prepare surfaces up to the SSPC-SP10 / NACE No. 2 (near-white metal) standard, with no grit, chemicals or hazardous waste. That places the finish in the same cleanliness band shops specify for coating and paint adhesion, achieved without abrasive media or chemical stripping and without the associated waste stream.

For rust and mill scale specifically, see laser rust and oxide removal.
