| Location | Gwangyang, Korea |

| Date | 2010 |
Engineers at a major iron mill located in Gwangyang, Korea were experiencing a series of corrosion problems with the mill condensers. As replacement would be an expensive and time consuming operation, Densoʼs Korean agent, K-Cotech suggested repairing the damaged condensers with an Archco 402B™ (423D) and Archco 502B™ (523D) liquid lining system.
The condensers were first grit blasted to remove the old FRP coating and then primed. A filler coat was used to fill the winding section and then Archco 402B lining was applied over the damaged areas. When the system was completed, the iron mill engineers were delighted at the results.
