ADE Power Wakefield — Marine CX Enclosure Preparation

At ADE Power in Wakefield, WF9, large enclosures have been blasted and primed to the stated Marine CX standard. The project has moved into the current flipping stage.

Large commercial enclosure preparation

The project photographs show large enclosures, prepared and primed surfaces, access equipment and the handling operation. The project footage records enclosure movement and the flipping stage.

Why Marine CX preparation matters

Marine CX is used for an extreme corrosive environment. It is not simply a thicker coat of paint: the project coating specification selects the coating system, number of coats and total dry-film build for the asset and maintenance approach.

Before primer, blasting removes contamination and creates a controlled microscopic anchor profile. The surface is not polished smooth; the required cleanliness, anchor profile and inspection checks come from the project coating specification and primer product data.

Planning Marine CX blasting for a major asset

Large enclosures need a practical plan for access, containment, protection of the work area, handling and the next coating stage. CX describes the coating environment; the project coating specification sets the preparation and handover requirements.
