While commercial painting is often thought to be less rigorous or less technical than industrial painting, the commercial painting industry has its own set of demands on a coating and is not without its share of coating problems. The authors experience demonstrates that there are commonalities in failures of coatings in commercial painting. This paper discusses a number of failures that are commonly found in the commercial painting field including painting of galvanized surfaces, coating of concrete surfaces (both floors and exterior building facades), use of elastomeric coatings, painting intricate surfaces, and painting plaster, drywall and wood surfaces. The paper describes both the cause of the failures and the appropriate methods of remediation and prevention.
