Laser cleaning for oil & grease

Start with the deposit. Protect the component.

A light surface film and a heavy grease build-up are different jobs. We assess the deposit, component and surroundings to decide where laser cleaning fits.

Assess the contamination

Describe the oil, grease or residue and how it built up. Product information helps us plan the cleaning approach.

Agree any pre-cleaning

Heavy deposits or pooled liquids may need removal by another method before a laser cleaning stage is considered.

Work around the equipment

Access, isolation, nearby seals and sensitive components all influence whether cleaning in place is practical.

Plan the next process

Tell us whether the component is being inspected, repaired, coated or returned to service so we can agree the scope.

An honest comparison

Choose the right cleaning sequence.

The best method depends on the surface, contamination and required finish. We will tell you when another approach is more suitable.

Oil & grease — common questions

Quick answers.

Not every deposit is suitable for direct laser cleaning. Heavy build-up and pooled liquids may need pre-cleaning. Send photos before arranging the job.

Sensitive parts may need isolation, protection or removal. We assess the whole work area rather than treating the visible surface in isolation.

No single method suits every contaminant. Tell us what the product is and provide a safety data sheet if available so we can assess the work.

Mobile work may be possible where there is suitable access and the equipment can be safely isolated. Movable parts can also be assessed for workshop cleaning.
