Investigation on optimum waterjet cleaning parameters for minimum surface impact during paint removal from mild steel

In paint removal operations, one of the major areas of concentration is efficient cleaning, with the objective aiming to effectively remove paint while having as minimal impact as possible on the surface. Conventional cleaning methods, such as chemical and mechanical techniques, are widely utilized...

Waterjet cleaning is becoming more and more popular as a better cleaning technique that guarantees efficiency while also prioritising environmentally friendly.
