Coating Inspection Services in Turkey

1. Stage 1

   Before Surface Preparation

   The inspector can review the available coating specification, ITP, approved procedures, coating materials and inspection requirements.

   Depending on the scope, this may include checking the condition of the substrate, welds, edges and areas to be coated.

2. Stage 2

   Surface Preparation

   The inspector can verify the specified preparation stage, including visual cleanliness and surface profile.

   Where required by the project, checks may also include dust, soluble salts, surface contamination or other preparation criteria.

3. Stage 3

   Environmental Conditions

   The inspector can record ambient temperature, surface temperature, relative humidity and dew-point conditions at the stages required by the specification.

   Acceptance limits and measurement frequency must come from the project documents.

4. Stage 4

   Coating Application

   Inspection can include verification of the specified coating materials, batch information, application stages, stripe coats, wet-film thickness and recoat intervals where included in the agreed scope.

5. Stage 5

   Coating Measurements and Tests

   Depending on the coating system and project requirements, activities may include:

   • Dry-film thickness measurements
   • Wet-film thickness measurements
   • Visual inspection for coating defects
   • Holiday detection
   • Adhesion-test witnessing or measurement
   • Inspection of repairs

   The agreed scope must state which tests the inspector performs and which are performed by another party and witnessed.

6. Stage 6

   Final Inspection and Documentation

   The inspector can review completed coating areas, agreed repairs, measurement records and project documentation.

   Observations are reported against the agreed requirements. Final acceptance remains with the responsible project parties.
