Coating defect
A coating defect occurs when a coating is applied unevenly or incorrectly to a surface. This can have a variety of causes, including inadequate preparation of the surface, incorrect selection or application of the coating material, or problems during the application process itself. Such defects can lead to a variety of problems, including inadequate protection against corrosion or wear, aesthetic defects or even structural weaknesses.
To avoid coating failures, thorough planning, careful surface preparation and professional application of the coating is required. It is also important to follow the manufacturer's instructions closely and ensure that the environmental conditions are appropriate during the coating process. By following best practice and monitoring quality assurance, potential problems can be minimized and the effectiveness of the coating maximized.
