Great video! I wonder if I can use the video as an illustration in some posts on Facebook and Linkedin, about metallization for corrosion protection on metal bridges!
Hi, No, Canam would not advise using metallizing over galvanizing, as galvanizing usually provides a good corrosion protection. Moreover, the surface preparation of metallizing will reduce (if not completely remove) the thickness of galvanization. However, a duplex system with paint over the zinc coating may be a solution in order to last longer in aggressive environment.
Thanks for the prompt response. What i actually meant is that i have the option of Metallizing or Galvanizing for a job both using a Duplex system. We were advised to use metallizing but want to be certain it will be equivalent Thanks in advance

Hi Canam,
Would you advise using metallizing over galvanizing for a seaside application?

Great info on metalizing.
Movie of arc-spray system very effective which can enable most of professionals about the benefits of Zn metallizatione
