The performance of coatings applied to cementitious building walls is a function of both the coating itself and the integrity of the building wall assembly. This paper addresses the tests that can be conducted to assess both the condition of the exterior coating system and the building walls, including infrared thermal imaging; moisture testing of walls and insulation; examination of sealants, coping, scuppers, gutters, and downspouts; assessment of air infiltration and exfiltration; analysis of coating thickness, adhesion and continuity (coverage, holidays, pinholes); determination of coating type; and assessing wind driven rain resistance.

Dry Film Thickness: is More Coating Always Better?

Product Number: 51219-188-SG
Author: Robert Alan Francis
Publication Date: 2019
$20.00

Coating thickness is one of the most important parameters influencing durability of a protective coating system. As a general rule-of-thumb, the thicker the coating, the greater the protection. But is there any upper limit to this general rule? This paper looks at durability figures of common protective coating systems for atmospheric and immersion exposure as a function of dry film thickness.
