Why Industrial Painting Is Completely Different From Normal Painting
Industrial coating is an asset protection exercise, not a decorating one. The purpose is to stop steel corroding and concrete degrading, and the specification is driven by exposure category, expected service life and the cost of the asset failing - not by appearance.
That changes the whole approach. Surface preparation is specified to a standard rather than described loosely, coating thickness is measured rather than estimated, and the systems used are two-pack epoxies, polyurethanes and zinc-rich primers rather than decorative acrylics.
Around Green Point and the adjacent harbour and Waterfront areas, the governing factor is coastal exposure. Airborne chloride puts structures here in a high corrosivity category under ISO 9223, and a specification adequate for an inland facility will underperform badly. The cost of getting that wrong is measured in structural steel, not in repainting.
Signs Your Industrial or Commercial Painting Facility Needs Repainting
- Rust bleeding at welds, connections, bolt heads and cut edges on structural steel
- Coating breakdown and chalking on exposed cladding, worst on the seaward face
- Blistering or delamination, which indicates moisture or contamination beneath the film
- Spalling concrete with exposed reinforcing - a structural repair that must precede any coating
- Worn or absent safety demarcation, line marking and hazard identification
- Corrosion at the base of columns and stanchions where water collects
- Coating approaching the end of its specified maintenance interval, whether or not it looks bad yet
How We Approach Industrial Painting Projects
- Condition survey and identification of the existing coating system before anything is specified
- Specification written against the actual exposure category, which on this coastline is high
- Surface preparation to a defined standard, with fresh-water washing to remove chlorides before mechanical preparation
- Concrete repair and reinforcing treatment completed and cured before coating begins
- Zinc-rich or epoxy primers appropriate to the substrate and exposure
- Coating thickness checked during application rather than assumed
- Full compliance with the Construction Regulations, including fall protection planning and appropriate access certification
- Phasing agreed with facility management so production is disrupted as little as possible
Industrial Painting Tips for Facility Managers
- Budget on a maintenance cycle rather than waiting for visible failure. Once corrosion reaches the substrate the cost changes category entirely
- Do not accept an inland specification for a coastal facility. Ask which corrosivity category the system is rated for
- Insist on fresh-water washing before preparation. Preparing over chlorides seals salt against the steel
- Require coating thickness measurement as part of the handover documentation
- Deal with concrete spalling as structural work, with proper engineering input, not as a coating problem
- Prioritise by consequence of failure rather than by what looks worst - the ugliest surface is rarely the most critical one
- Keep records of systems and dates. The next contractor needs to know what is already on the substrate
