Challenge
The customer wanted to preserve a recently refurbished rotor for a maximum period of two years until it was put back into service. The rotor was to be placed in a wooden crate and stored in an indoor warehouse. The customer wanted to have a practical long term preservation solution that was simple to apply and doesn’t require excessive removal.

Application
After visually inspecting the rotor surface for cleanliness and readiness for applying the preservation procedure, it was sprayed uniformly with VpCI®-368 corrosion protection coating and left to dry. The coated rotor was then wrapped with MilCorr® VpCI® Shrink Film which was shrunk to a taut fit with a portable heat gun. The preserved rotor was then placed in wooden crate ready for storage.

Conclusion
Customer was satisfied by the straight forward preservation procedure and decided to start offering preservation services to its clients.
