  3. Flame cleaning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_cleaning

    Flame cleaning, also known as flame gouging, [1] is the process of cleaning a structural steel surface by passing an intensely hot oxyacetylene flame over it. Mill scale and rust are removed by the reducing effect of the flame and the action of the heat, leaving the surface in a condition suitable for wire brushing and painting.
