Fastest way to remove coatings
Our Hydrocat is simply the fastest way to remove coatings in marine and industrial applications.  Painting and stripping can be performed simultaneously.

As Flow's waterjetting operations require no containment, painters and other trades can work side-by-side so you can complete your jobs more quickly!

Equipped with FlowVac™
This system is equipped with FlowVac, a powerful vacuum that securely attaches the Hydrocat to the work surface, and removes 100% of the water, removed coatings, and corrosion for easy collection! 

YES, 100%.  You have no clean up in the air or the ground.  Once collected, paint solids are contained in disposable filters for easy haul away, and the filtered water that remains can usually be drained to a sewer, or even recycled back into your system.

Best solution for removing coatings
Flow's HydroCat is the best solution for removing coatings from a variety of surfaces including metal and concrete. 

It is ideally suited for surface preparation applications in industries such as:  shipyards, painting contractors, tank farms, shipbuilders, petrochemical.

Single operator
You can run the HydroCat with a single operator, making your jobs undemanding, and easy to complete.  With Flow's HydroCat, you will reduce your overall project cost, and improve your productivity!
