Overview A large process vessel, operational temperature at around 55oC, required to be completely refurbished without any disruption to other contractors working adjacent to this area. It also had to be carried out in a very tight timescale in cold and very damp conditions during the plant shutdown.

Solution First coat of Epo-chemTM RA 564 solvent-free glassflake epoxy system @ 500µ DFT by airless spray. All deep pitting were filled with Ceram-chemTM RH 500 solvent-free, ceramic epoxy putty. Second coat of Epo-chemTM RA 564 solvent-free glassflake
