Apex completed project
I refurbished the external metalwork at the ScS showroom in Cardiff, including eight large columns and the beams above the entrance canopy that hold the glass in place. Years of exposure had left the surfaces dirty, with rust that needed treating before the shopfront could be recoated. The work covered thorough cleaning and preparation, followed by primer and a white Selemix 2K polyurethane finish.
Before work began
The columns and canopy beams had accumulated a considerable amount of dirt and grime over the years. There were also areas of rust on the metalwork. These surfaces needed more than a fresh coat of paint: the contamination had to be removed and the corroded areas prepared so the primer and finish could be applied to a sound surface.
The Apex standard
I cleaned down all eight columns and the beams above the canopy, removing the built-up dirt from the exposed metalwork. I then degreased the surfaces and ground back the rusted areas. Once the metalwork was clean and prepared, I applied primer to the areas requiring protection before moving on to the finish coats.
Completed finish
The eight columns and the glass-supporting canopy beams now have a clean, uniform white finish. Removing the years of grime, preparing the rusted metalwork and recoating these prominent features gave the ScS entrance a much fresher, more cared-for appearance.
