Chlor*Rid International has developed two salt testing kits, the Chlor*Ion Meter, a patent-pending hand-held digital testing device that electronically measures chloride with an internal ion specific electrode for accurate worry-free testing (available in the second-quarter of 2010) and Chlor*Test, a complete and easy to use system that lets even the least experienced inspector get accurate results. Once tested, the Chlor*Rid salt removal product is then applied to remove salts. Chlor*Rid is the easiest, least expensive, and fastest way to remove salts. Organic, non-hazardous and bio-degradable, Chlor*Rid is added to water and then applied to surfaces to flush out all destructive salts. Steel must be coated to protect it against corrosion. Coatings perform best when applied to a salt-free, clean surface, since all coatings and paints are formulated to be applied to a contaminant-free surface. If the steel is coated with salts remaining, there will be corrosion and premature failure of the coating. Left unchecked, salt contamination corrodes deep into the substrate, making decontamination even more urgent and challenging. “Clean uncontaminated steel will not rust, even in 100% humidity, for thousands of hours,” said Gerald Stoltz, National Shipbuilding Research Program.
