REDI STRIP does clean all metals, removing all the rust, paints and whatever off your job, car, project, industrial equipment, railings or whatever it happens to be
This is where most jobs start in preparation for their new life after REDI STRIPPING
The first part of the operation is dipping your job in a tank of moderately heated and temperature controlled, specially developed alkaline SHS fluid. This special compound is used in the immersion tank process as the first step of the total REDI STRIP experience.
During this first phase of the operation most of the paints, mastics, sealers, and greases will be removed as seen below
This the Porsche after the first of the series of treatments
No, At this point the paint is lifting. Next the items will get pressure washed and inspected to see how much more has to be done in this first phase and how much more tank time will be required to get the best result. This first cycle may be done more than once to get the best results depending on what materials are actually on the metal. At this point the job may require our staff to hand strip some areas before re-immersion to get the high degree of cleanliness we are known for.
No, our next step is where we get to work on the rust. This is where a lot of our specialist experience and our unique machinery is used to get you the rust free result. This is another of the main areas were REDI STRIP is unrivalled, and where any other suppliers in the market place cannot give you the same outstanding results that REDI STRIP does
Once cleaned, we will then dip your job in our very unique electrostatic bath to loosen the rust in all the areas. This is a very special part of the process and is another key area that separates us from our competition.
Obviously rust cannot be seen inside of the rails, tubes, piping, pillars or any box sections or similar and that's where the REDI STRIP process makes the difference over and above the rest. This stage of the process is similar to a huge ultrasonic bath for your job, loosening and floating away heavy rust deposits
It’s pretty obvious that if you don’t get the rust out of the inside of your closed in sections, it can be very important in the long term. It’s very likely to come back and usually getting rid of rust is a major part of why you are doing the restorative work in the first place.
Experts all know the value of immaculate preparation and this one of the most critical parts
In between all the stages it will be treated with a chemical solution, to assist in the process. Once that's done then it will be placed in another bath with yet another solution until clean
Then your job will be washed again and coated, yet again, and then dipped back in the electrolytic bath and cycled as before until completely free of rust
This expensive competition Porsche was REDI STRIPPED as part of exacting preparations for competition
here it is about to go into the derust cycle.
What you will end up with is a bare metal body, parts, or whatever that you have sent us, just as they were produced in the factory. At this point they are bright and shiny ready straight away for painting. Needing no other preparation other than whatever repairs and painting is required.
Not yet, but we are getting closer,
At this point we can leave the items in one of two stages. This is where you must make a decision,
1. When your job is finished, it will have a very mildly inhibited surface finish and this will hold surface rust at bay for a very short time. Now because it is so clean it will be venerable in the long term to normal deterioration (surface rust) so we would advise you to have the items painted within a reasonably short period of time usually same day as the items are finished, and particularly if it is very humid at the time otherwise,
2. If you think your items/project is going to be left past a few hours before being painted, we can coat it with a choice of finishes including the highly recommended Paintgrip 253 or our special lanoline based rust retardant, other items can have WD40 coatings its up to you. Generally body parts will suit paintgrip 253/ kephos while engineering items suit Lanoline or WD40
The whole REDI STRIP process will usually take 6‐10 working days, depending on the car and how much work is required but some may take a little longer. Other items depending on the degree of difficulty will vary, but usually 7 days turnaround covers most jobs
NO not all. This is another reason you should consider REDI STRIP Because the REDI STRIP process is Alkaline based, it will not damage, thin, etch, create embrittlement, or in any way alter dimensionally any machined surfaces. This is not true of all metal stripping processes, so please keep that in mind.
At the end of the REDI STRIP process You will be left with a immaculately cleaned item, which in most cases will look as it looked new prior to paint.

REDI STRIP has several of the largest immersion tanks in the industry at 6 metres most items can be manipulated to fit if oversize and we can handle just about all items in any industry
REDI STRIP pricing is very competitive in the market place.
With the variety of jobs we see from all industries, items are usually priced on per job basis based on size.
When you consider that you are getting your job completely cleaned and DE-RUSTED and finished both where you can see on the outside, but more importantly on the inside where you cannot see, you are really getting exception value for money.
If you compare to most other methods, that can only clean what you can see, can you really afford to not use the best in Australia REDI STRIP?
Yes you are getting exceptional value for money, and way ahead of other types of stripping. Media blast systems just cannot compete doing the thorough job that REDI STRIP can
Items coated in urethane two packs etc are charged at a slightly different rate as they require more extensive methods of stripping and extra labour time to strip
Pricing of jobs are based on size, condition, and degree of difficulty, quite obviously if there are special problems where something is going to require lots more work, then we can look at it and quote you prior to beginning the job.
