KRØLL's UNIQUE SURFACE
TREATMENT PROCESS
After
welding, all structural members
are shotblast to clean metal.
This is done manually in order to fully cover
every square inch, incl. "shielded" areas.
Immediately
after shotblasting
components are metallized.
An aluminum-zinc alloy is fused onto the steel,
where it stays on with molecular attraction.
The protective layer is homogenous
with the steel and cannot flake off.
Paint is applied
with airless-electrostatic gun.
A proprietary paint formulation and spraying process
allows virtually unlimited coat thickness w/o runs.
With
thick glossy paint
some pieces look as molded plastic.
Contact surfaces
needing good friction are masked.
