Partial Blast of Ultra High Solids Coatings on Navy Ships

Partial Blast of Ultra High Solids Coatings on Navy Ships
Available for download

The NSRP Surface Preparation and Coatings panel sponsored a project to reduce the extent of abrasive blasting to remove aged, ultra-high solids coatings from tanks and other spaces on Navy ships. This “partial blast” process allows a percentage of remaining serviceable Ultra High Solids (UHS) to remain. After surface preparation, a single coat application of UHS coating is applied to all surfaces.

The NSRP Surface Preparation and Coatings panel sponsored a project to reduce the extent of abrasive blasting to remove aged, ultra-high solids coatings from tanks and other spaces on Navy ships. This “partial blast” process allows a percentage of remaining serviceable Ultra High Solids (UHS) to remain. After surface preparation, a single coat application of UHS coating is applied to all surfaces. During this project, partial blast surface preparation of ultra-high solids epoxy coatings was observed on two projects. Consistent cost savings has been demonstrated in both demonstrations. The work has shown that partial blast can be effectively performed at a reduced cost. Cost savings result from a reduction in abrasive blasting time and fewer clean-up-inspect rework iterations. Though there is limited data and demonstrations to-date, there have not been any signs of catastrophic impacts to service life; further service time, field observations, and testing will help to build confidence that the alternative process reduces cost at an acceptable performance risk.

Partnering with the US Navy: Water Storage Tank Maintenance on a Global Scale

Product Number: 51219-219-SG
Author: Gregory Chip Stein
Publication Date: 2019
$20.00

Fourteen countries, 20 states, and 76 bases…that sounds like quite a deployment! But what if, instead, you are charged with the evaluation and maintenance of over 500 water-storage tanks and related structures on those bases. Who would you turn to for professional guidance? How would you keep all of the details of the structures’ conditions and recommendations for maintenance organized in a manner that would allow you to rate and prioritize tank maintenance requirements?
