PURCHASE OF eSTRIPTM Type VII Corn Starch-g-Acrylic blast media

The United States Coast Guard, under the Department of Homeland Security, is forecasting the purchase of eStrip Type VII Corn Starch-g-Acrylic blast media. This engineered copolymer abrasive is designed to strip coatings from various substrates without causing damage, allowing for the removal of top coatings while preserving primers. It is specifically utilized for removing vinyl from aircraft interior panels, sealants from fuel cells, and paint from cadmium plated parts, serving as a safer alternative to traditional chemical and plastic bead stripping systems by reducing personnel exposure to hazardous materials. The procurement is categorized under NAICS code 327910 and will be performed in Elizabeth City, North Carolina. Key points of contact for this requirement include Samuel Ownley and Patrick Morris, with Justin Midgett serving as the Small Business Specialist.
