This paper will offer general guidance regarding preservation by liquid applied coatings to the owners and operators of coastal and inland working vessels. The paper will discuss both new construction and maintenance painting and will offer suggested coating systems for the main areas of these vessels.
Every year millions of dollars are spent litigating the responsibility issues associated with the repair or replacement of coated products that have prematurely lost their decorative or protective value due to improper coating specification or application. Many of these failures could have been avoided if the proper finishing materials and methods were specified, followed, certified and documented.

Polyurea geomembranes have unique properties, and they deserve the same comprehensive testing and reporting as the components used to form them.
