Today’s Situation
“It
has been estimated that the cost of corrosion in the United States
alone will exceed $300 Billion this year. If we could extend the
service life of our coating systems, billions of dollars could be
saved.”
“75% to 80% of all premature coating failures are caused by improper
or
inadequate surface preparation.”
“Coating quality and service life depends on the level of
inspection.”

“Inspect This!” --- Spring 2004
