In 2021, the Corrdesa non-drip plating system was qualified as approved GSE for the F-35 and to date more than 50 of these systems have been shipped worldwide for on-aircraft repair on flight lines and aircraft carriers.
The system utilizes a Dalistick® tool for application of electrolytes, think of a large chemically resistant highlighter pen connected to a power source. Using the mobile cart, a technician can roll the system just outside of an aircraft’s shadow and implement a repair using two Dalistick® Tools; the first for removal of a damaged coating and the second to apply the new coating. Depending on the repair, a technician can preset the voltage and current delivered by the rectifier to ensure that the repair coating meets its targeted thickness. The closed-loop chemical system keeps electrolytes contained for easy clean up and disposal.
