 Having been in this coatings world for over 30 years, I have seen many, many coating failures. I remember in my SSPC & NACE certification courses listening to the grizzled vets tell their “old war stories”. Now, I have my own, three of which I am going to share with you.

 Having been in this coatings world for over 30 years, I have seen many, many coating failures. I remember in my SSPC & NACE certification courses listening to the grizzled vets tell their “old war stories”. Now, I have my own, three of which I am going to share with you. The point of this article is that an Independent Third-Party Coatings Inspector while not always required is a very good idea and certainly worth the money involved. The three stories I am going to tell you are true, but the names are changed to protect the innocent as well as the guilty. The first two tell of how an Independent Third-Party Coatings inspector could have saved time & money for the client. The last story also tells of how things can get very “exciting” on a jobsite where an coatings inspector is working.

(Inspection) Coating Inspection- Is a Manufacturers Rep a Good Choice for Project Coating Inspections?

Product Number: 52-COAT_DEC21
Author: Murray Heywood
Publication Date: 2021

Every day a new specification comes out naming coating manufacturers reps as performers of Coating Inspection duties on projects. These often include multiple scheduled job site visit commitments and having the manufacturers rep sign off on inspection hold points. I know that in some instances this is due to old outdated engineer and owners’ specifications where this stipulation has been in the documents for years and no one ever bothered to remove it, even though they may agree with me on this point.
