The presentation will share new developments in polyaspartic technology that allows contractors to repair aged gelcoat originally used as the OEM /wearcoat over fiberglass composites and other architectural substrates by using this environmentally preferred option. Via processing, physical property, and weatherability comparisons traditional coatings and gelcoats will be compared with this new technology which affords the applicator and owner significant benefits such as long term durability, rapid re-deployment, ultra-low VOC, no added heavy metals or phthalates, and no styrene odor. This technology based on the proven power of polyaspartic chemistry can be applied in a thick one coat process which allows the contractor to eliminate time consuming multi-coat options and offers the owner a more durable and sustainable solution to their gelcoat problems. Examples of uses and markets will be discussed including amusement and water parks.

Recognizing the need to elevate craft workers’ skills within the industrial coatings industry, the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades (IUPAT) became involved in the development of the published SSPC ACS 1/NACE No.13 Joint Standard and the Body of Knowledge contained within. Since the development of the joint standard, the IUPAT has taken advantage of the opportunities afforded by the standard and remained committed to ensuring that its members are properly trained and certified as prescribed by the industry standard.

It is often said that inspection processes save money but that inspection reports cost money. The automation of inspection processes is an important cost saving that also leads to more time being allocated to the important task of inspection. There have been recent developments in both software and gauge design, which together make paperless quality assurance a reality for all protective and industrial coating applications.

Green Alternatives to Using Zinc Potable Water Systems

In this article, we will be presenting some background about the zinc‐in‐immersion technology itself while addressing some of the important questions where the two opposing sides commonly clash. A discussion over failure modes; reasons for failure; and alternate technologies will be discussed. Additional information will detail what factors and features are needed to develop a good lining to protect steel water tanks. The paper will conclude by discussing alternative coating options that exist (including “greener” versions) and expected performance levels these coatings are anticipated to provide.
