FAQ
1. Selection and systems
How to select a protective coating system for steel structures: which system corresponds to each corrosion category, what the zinc-rich primer and micaceous iron oxide intermediate coat each do, whether different resins can be applied over one another, and when the coating must be changed for a given service condition. Organised as a decision path; parameters are subject to the original manufacturer TDS.
30 Q&A items2. Application and conditions
Minimum limits for temperature and humidity during application of anti-corrosion coatings, how overrun recoat intervals are handled, how two-component mixing ratios and thinners are selected, and how long a mixed product remains usable. All organised according to the application conditions in the original manufacturer TDS.
48 Q&A items3. Inspection and acceptance
How protective coatings on steel structures are inspected: how the 90/10 film thickness rule is applied, how thickness gauges are calibrated, how adhesion and pinholes are tested, how surface preparation grades are accepted, and which reports are required.
24 Q&A items4. Defects and repair
Diagnosis of common protective coating defects: causes of blistering, yellowing, pinholes, cratering, sagging and paint detachment, how each is judged on site, how repair is carried out, and the extent of repair that constitutes completion.
