.

Problem

Cause

Solution

Coating peels.

Coating is too thick.

Dilute coating so that the layer thickness does not exceed 100µm.

Coating does not adhere on the surface.

Bad surface conditions.

Clean and degrease surface, perhaps grit blasting, warm surface prior to application to 100-150°C.

Further layers do not stick on the first layer.

First coating is not yet completely dried.

Extend drying time, remove loose particles and coat again.

Exfoliation and cracking.

Dilute coating in such way that thinner layers can be applied.

Cloudy, uneven application when spraying.
