In Memory of G.M. Wendel
Mentor, Leader, and Corrosion Professional
I met Mike Wendel in 2000 while serving as an active-duty Marine stationed in Corpus Christi. Mike Wendel was the mentor who introduced me to this industry, trained me from the beginning, and supported me throughout my career. His guidance, integrity, and high standards shaped the foundation of American Corrosion Solutions. Mike passed on July 22, 2025, but his influence continues in the work we do every day.
