Step 1 – Climatic Conditions

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1500268025424{margin-top: 2% !important;margin-bottom: 1% !important;}”]The prevailing climatic conditions during blasting and painting are critical in achieving a successful coating application.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1500268059727{margin-top: 2% !important;margin-bottom: 1% !important;}”]Dewpoint [/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1500268087238{margin-bottom: 1% !important;}”]In certain conditions moisture from the air can condense on the substrate post blast resulting in flash rust which can adversely affect the adherence of subsequently applied paint. Furthermore moisture can condense on the substrate after the application of the paint before the curing process is complete.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1500268109273{margin-bottom: 1% !important;}”]In order to monitor the dewpoint temperature the following parameters must be measured: the surface temperature of the substrate, the air temperature, and the relative humidity. By applying a formula to the air temperature and the relative humidity the dewpoint can be calculated – the surface temperature of the substrate must remain at least 3 degrees Celcius above the dewpoint temperature to avoid moisture condensing on the surface.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1500268134274{margin-top: 2% !important;margin-bottom: 1% !important;}”]Temperature[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1500277521230{margin-bottom: 3% !important;}”]The temperature must always be monitored to ensure that it remains within the parameters of the coating specifications.
