CeramiGrade Rebuild is a two component, solvent free, fast curing,
synthetic repair compound. Areas of application: Re-building pumps,
impellers, propellers, turbine blades, valves etc.
1. Surface preparation
Heavy contamination due to oil or grease must be removed using a
cleaner. Where possible, abrasive blasting is the preferred surface
preparation, especially in fluid flow repairs.
If Reinforcement Bandage is used to strengthen the repair, the
bandage should be impregnated with CeramiGrade Rebuild, or the bandage
should be laid over the surface of the CeramiGrade Rebuild and
pressed into the surface. Additional CeramiGrade Rebuild should then be
applied over the surface.
A Remove all contamination oil, grease and dirt with a cleaner.
B Remove all loose rust and surface coatings.
C Roughen the surface, preferably with abrasive blasting to SA.
Alternatively a die grinder, needle scaler or angle grinder may be used.
If grinding make sure the surface is roughened, not polished. Where
grinding or needle gunning is used, the surface should be cross scored to
improve adhesion.
D Equipment which has been salt- impregnated should be heated to
sweat out the salt contamination, then the surface re-blasted. Repeat this
process until all salt contamination is eliminated.
E To ensure that all contamination is removed carry out a final degreasing
with a cleaner. Cloths should be frequently changed to avoid
spreading contamination. On deeply pitted surfaces of porous castings,
a cleaner should be worked into the surface by brush and washed off
using excess cleaner.
F Parts for example, threads or bearing surfaces which must
remain in position during application but which should not adhere to
CeramiGrade Rebuild must be coated with a release agent.
