The water-assisted stripping process (WASP) developed by Vapormatt is designed to speed up and streamline the degreasing, cleaning, and de-painting of aircraft wheels during regular maintenance operations. WASP is a solvent- and dust-free process that employs an operator-safe cleaning solution of water, detergent, and soft plastic media. It is projected at the wheel through a special blast nozzle which is manipulated by hand. The standard machine enclosure can accommodate wheel diameters of up to 30 inches. When used at low pressure, the process doesn't damage coated or anodized substrates, removing grease, oil, carbon, and brake dust deposits. At high pressure, the process provides paint stripping and contamination removal. For more information visit www.vapormatt.com.
