Inspection and Repair
Inspection
The finished coating must be visually inspected for any defects, such as runs and sags, fisheyes, blistering, pinholes, missed spots and possible contaminants. Pinhole/Holiday detection must generated according to NACE SP0188.
Coating Thickness
The coating thickness (DFT) must be within the specified DFT range. Use calibrated equipment and measure according to SSPC-PA 2 or other specified standard.
Repair
Pinholes/Holidays must be located and repaired with approved material. Consult Powercrete® for specific information. Retest the repaired area.
Cleaning & Handling
Cleanup
Use Acetone or MEK.
General
Transport and stacking is possible after full cure of the coating and generating a Holiday test (NACE SP0188). This time can be reduced by increasing the curing temperature. Consult Powercrete® for specific information.
