Protective coating systems play a significant role in keeping assets protected against the elements. It takes deep knowledge of the various systems, their application characteristics, surface preparation requirements to assess the value of a coating system once applied or after some time in service. Our certified AMPP (NACE), FROSIO, BGAS coating inspectors play a vital role in delivering systems according to specifications. SpectrumNDT can assist you in:

• coating job specification
• coating procedure review
• pre-job meeting
• surface preparation testing
• coating application inspection and testing
• coating application assessment
• coating system failure analysis

A large variety of testing can be performed including:

• pull-off adhesion test (ASTM D4541, ISO 4624)
