Cut edge corrosion treatment project with lap sealing in Whitburn
Edges stabilised, laps sealed and coatings returned beyond the joint for durability.

Cut edge corrosion starts when the factory finish stops — at cut edges, lap joints and around fixings. Once the coating lifts, steel oxidises and moisture tracks into the joint. We break that cycle with specification-driven prep, sealing and protective coatings.

Featured in Whitburn: Fitness Hub — Trim Detailing — bolt heads; trims; returns; weekend. Outcome: neat returns; uniform colour.

Seal widths and coating returns to the specified dimensions.
  1. Survey & Planning: Diagnose delamination, corrosion and moisture routes; confirm safe access and sequencing.
  2. Mechanical Preparation: Remove failed Plastisol/paint; treat corrosion; degrease to a sound edge.
  3. Priming: Apply compatible metal primers to stabilise prepared areas.
  4. Lap Sealing: Tool elastomeric sealant into side/end laps, penetrations and bolt heads to specified width/depth.
