Cleaning monuments made of metals

Water power alone can easily remove algae, lichen, moss, dirt and graffiti from metals. Classic methods using cold or hot water, a suitable lance and the right pressure are usually used to clean metal monuments. DYNAJET has the right tool for every type of contamination.

Expert analysis of the material, level and type of contamination as well as the recommended procedure is needed when it comes to conservation of historical monuments. These precious objects need the utmost care in cleaning and maintenance to avoid causing more damage. Operators need to be experienced in dealing with high pressure to be able to apply the procedures as gently and effectively as possible to achieve the right outcome.

Cleaning monuments made of natural stone

Monuments made of soft stone, such as sandstone, are especially sensitive and can be easily be damaged by incorrect treatment. The surfaces must be treated with the special care that pure water-jet technology applies.

A water-sand blasting technique is used for these soft substrates which protects the surfaces and gently removes dirt. The DYNAJET WSS 500 water-sandblasting system uses water in combination with a suitable blasting medium. The result: a gently cleaned, spotless surface.
