This standard practice describes overcoating of the exteriors of railcars. The purpose of this standard practice is to provide methods for testing and application of overcoating materials for the benefit of railcar owners, lessees, and maintenance providers who are charged with developing and executing programs for the maintenance painting of railcars.

These case studies are presented demonstrating the cost savings and performance of one-coat direct-to-metal (DTM) and two-coat polyaspartic exterior coatings of three industrial maintenance applications involving hopper railcars, bridges, and an exposed steel beam superstructure. In each example, the rapid cure time of the polyaspartic coating provided increased productivity to complement its documented high performance.
This state-of-the-art report describes types of insulation and coating systems used on tank cars to provide corrosion control. Temperature limitations are provided for each system.

In the worldwide oil and gas industry, the application of epoxy phenolic coatings has been a dominant strategy to obtain high heat resistance from coatings and to mitigate corrosion under insulation (CUI) of both insulated carbon and stainless steel pipes operating up to 392°F (200°C). These coatings, however, are sensitive to overapplication, prone to cracking, and costly to repair when damaged.
