Monitoring Environmental Conditions for Cleaning and Painting Operations

Monitoring environmental conditions—a make-or-break issue for a coatings project—will be the focus of a free upcoming webinar presented by JPCL and SSPC.

The Journal of Protective Coatings & Linings and the Society for Protective Coatings will present “Monitoring Environmental Conditions for Cleaning and Painting Operations” from 1:15 to 2:15 p.m. EDT Wednesday (Feb. 23).

Presenter Bill Corbett of KTA-Tator Inc. will address the procedures associated with monitoring prevailing conditions of air and surface temperatures, relative humidity, dew point temperature and wind speed before and during surface preparation and coating application.

Participants may register here free for the program.

The program is part of the JPCL/SSPC Webinar Education Series, which provides continuing education for SSPC recertifications and technology updates on important topics.

Other recent topics in the series have included disposing of waste water in UHP operations, writing good bridge specifications, and advances in polyurethane and polyurea technology.
