There are many methods for surface preparation in the coating industry, including abrasive blasting, power tools and hand tools. Experience proved that abrasive blasting is the best method for surface preparation, however it has some limitations for coating repair such as accessibility, time constrain and damaging to surrounding area, etc. New power tool technology was recently introduced to improve the performance of conventional power tool and hand tool methods. In this study, we have evaluated workability and coating performance with different surface preparation methods in accordance with international test standards.
