February 24, 2026

Ch Spotlight 328 Web - Cortec Corporation The customer had castings that had corroded through neglect. They needed a way to reclaim the parts without having to scrap them and purchase new ones. They soaked the parts in VpCI^®-422, then rinsed them in a solution of VpCI^®-418. The clean castings were misted with VpCI^®-377, and CorWipes were used to remove excess VpCI^®-377 from the holes. This process enabled the customer to reclaim all castings in one week, saving urgently needed production lead time and providing peace of mind.
