The removal of unwanted coatings, such as paint and rust, from metallic substrates is a common challenge across multiple industries. This evaluative study investigates the efficacy of laser ablation as a viable technique for addressing this issue, contrasting its performance when targeting painted paint films versus iron-based rust layers. Initial

Laser ablation has emerged as a highly effective technique for the removal of paint and remediation of rust. This non-contact process utilizes a focused laser beam to melt the target material, leaving minimal alteration to the underlying surface. The versatility of laser ablation allows for selective removal of paint layers without affecting surro
