Surface Preparation

Surface preparation is the process of cleaning and treating a surface before applying paint, coatings, or adhesives. It ensures the surface is free of dirt, grease, rust, and old paint, which helps ensure better adhesion and durability of the new material applied. Common methods include sanding, power washing, or using chemical cleaners, depending on the surface type. Proper surface preparation is crucial for achieving a long-lasting and professional finish, as it directly affects the quality and lifespan of the applied materials. Think of it as getting a canvas ready before starting to paint a masterpiece.
