Coating Inspection Report

 

A coating inspection report helps prevent product failure and reduce costs.

 

  Coatings provide most structures not only with an outward appearance but also with protection from corrosion, ultraviolet light, water penetration, heat, abrasion, and chemicals. Exova can provide a coating inspection report that gives you a clear look at the properties and quality of coatings. With new and improved materials being developed and introduced at an accelerating pace, the need to efficiently and economically apply protective or decorative coatings is equally intensive. Selection of appropriate coating materials has become increasingly important as the refinishing of painted surfaces becomes more costly. The information provided by a coating inspection report can contribute much to the reduction of these costs. At Exova, we combine our skills in coating formulation and analysis with years of practical experience in product validation to produce a top quality coating inspection report for your product.
