Hogaboom Test

Surface Preparation Inspection: HOGABOOM TEST !
The second essential check to achieve GEOMET®’s premium performance !

 

A few weeks ago, we introduced the Degreasing Test. To ensure that metal parts are truly ready for our GEOMET® Zinc Flake protection, a second check plays a key role The HOGABOOM TEST.

 

This test is done after the shot blasting step to check that the surface has been correctly prepared to ensure consistent adhesion with the binder in our GEOMET® coatings. This enables the anti-corrosion coating to provide effective protection thanks to its sacrificial properties.

 

A clean, properly prepared surface leads to a coating that delivers its full corrosion‑resistant potential.

 

Our teams guide our GEOMET® licensed applicators worldwide step‑by‑step through proven best practices to ensure consistent, repeatable, and premium‑level results, every time.

 

Better preparation. Better performance. Better protection with GEOMET®.
