A clean weld is a mark of quality. Spatter, discoloration, and heat tint tell a customer the work was rushed. Arc Surface Solutions delivers professional laser weld cleaning across Winnipeg and Manitoba, removing spatter, oxidation, and heat tint from welds so they are clean, corrosion-resistant, and ready for inspection or finishing.
After welding, the heat-affected zone around a weld develops a layer of oxidation and heat tint. On stainless steel, this discoloration is more than cosmetic: it can compromise corrosion resistance. On carbon steel, residual spatter and scale create weak points where rust starts.
Traditional cleaning methods have real drawbacks:
Laser weld cleaning removes the discoloration and spatter without touching the weld metal or the surrounding surface. The result is a clean, uniform, passivated finish that is ready for inspection, painting, or delivery.
Remove rust, mill scale, oil, and coatings from the weld zone before welding. Clean edges and joints for a stronger, cleaner weld, without chemicals or abrasives.
Remove spatter and weld splatter. Eliminate heat tint and oxidation discoloration. Restore corrosion resistance on stainless steel.
Produce a clean, uniform finish that is ready for inspection, painting, powder coating, or direct delivery to your customer.
We bring the laser to your fabrication shop, so your welders keep producing while we handle the finishing.
If your welds need to look as good as they are strong, laser weld cleaning is the answer.
Consistent, inspection-ready welds on every job, without the uneven look of grinding or brushing.
The weld and surrounding metal stay intact. No loss of material, no contamination of the surface.
No pickling paste, no hazardous waste, no disposal costs. A cleaner, safer process for your shop.
We come to your shop and clean welds in place, so your team keeps working while we handle the finishing.
Laser weld cleaning uses a focused pulsed laser to remove spatter, oxidation, and heat tint from welds without chemicals or abrasive media. It produces a clean, uniform finish and can restore corrosion resistance on stainless steel.
No. The laser removes only surface contamination and discoloration, leaving the weld metal and surrounding surface intact. This is a key advantage over grinding, which removes material.
Yes. Laser cleaning removes the oxidation and heat tint from the heat-affected zone of stainless steel welds, restoring a clean, uniform appearance and helping preserve corrosion resistance.
Yes. We are a mobile service. We bring the laser to your fabrication shop and clean welds in place, so your team can keep working while we handle the finishing.
