Pipe Maintenance and Restoration project

This project involved the restoration and maintenance of an old and corroded piping (steam piping)system. The primary objective was to clean, lubricate, and protect the pipes from further corrosion and damage. The process included the use of WD-40 to loosen rusted fittings and valves, clean the surfaces, and provide a protective coating to prevent future rust and corrosion. 1. Rust Removal. WD-40 effectively loosened the rusted components, making it easier to disassemble and clean the pipes. 2. Lubrication. It provided necessary lubrication for the moving parts, ensuring smoother operation of the valves and fittings. 3. Protection. The protective layer formed by WD-40 helped in preventing future corrosion, thus prolonging the life of the pipes. 4. Cleaning. It helped in cleaning off grime, rust, and dirt from the pipe surfaces, preparing them for any further treatment or painting.
