[QUOTE="MD @Minshall Buildings, post: 6507835, member: 50656"] Hydrochloric acid used by galvanizers will not remove paint and therefore any paint left on steel will subsequently protect the base steel from pickling and thus once galvanized all areas that had paint remaining with not be coated in zinc....in short a disaster! ( any decent galvanizer would not accept it in any case!) As suggested previously, best get the whole lot blast cleaned prior to galvanizing. You well get a thicker coating of zinc as a consequence thus leading to longer life for the structure. Some industrial painters offer a blasting only service. IMO you need to be buying second hand buildings for scrap equivalent to gain any real advantage against buying new with all the extra hassle and with no CE traceability and design security new ones deliver.
