Abstract: Embodiments of the present methods and solutions that operate to prepare a metal surface to be ready for coating or primer. The surface is operated on using mechanical or pressure impingement operation in conjunction with application of medium comprising dimethylethanolamine (DMEA) and water (DMEA diluted in water). Embodiments of the present invention can perform the wash or decontamination to leave a clean surface that provides excellent performance in durability and rust resistance after being coated or primed. Other cleaning chemicals if added may reduce the performance and interfere with the desired objective. Other surfaces are contemplated.
