COATING WEST 2009 Bulk Chemicals Zirca-Sil™ technology is a metal pretreatment replacement. It is a homogeneous inorganic coating based on the formation of a thin layer of a nano/metallic matrix on metal surfaces. The coating produced is about 40 to 80 nanometers thick and applied by spray or immersion process and can be used for all metals. PEM Corporation The Spray Wand ™ pretreatment system is designed for all OEM’s and job shops that have an ongoing need for metal cleaning and metal pretreatment. It produces the same high quality results of high-end multi-stage pretreatment systems, at a fraction of the cost. The system is engineered to meet the demands of high-production environments. The precision fixed ratio chemical injectors ensure consistent output and consistent, higher quality pretreatment results. Echo Engineering The company offers EchoPlast, a specially formulated polymer that is used to mask parts that require a rigid, resilient, reusable material that attracts powder for less flaking, or it can be precision threaded for screw-in applications. Automotive parts masked by EchoPlast masks include fuel tanks, oil tanks, brake parts, valve covers and wheels to name a few.
