Project Design

During the project design phase of a coating project the Scope of Works is drafted and formalized by the specifier, paint supplier and the coatings inspector.

The project design phase of a coating project begins with the drafting and formalization of the Scope of Works. The key players at this point are the specifier, paint supplier and the coatings inspector.

One of the more important aspects of this phase of a project is to ensure that the material selected matches the specified substrate and will deliver the desired protection. To do this, the design team needs an intimate knowledge of coating dynamics and the chemistry behind the coating system. It is critical at this point for the coatings inspector to obtain, read and understand the specification and all supporting documentation.
