Welcome to the KTA Coating Failure Analysis Video Learning Series!
This is a six-part video series that demonstrates the field and laboratory methods that were used to determine why a new coating system applied to a previously painted concrete floor had failed. Each part is standalone, addressing a different aspect of the evaluation, but when viewed in order, they present a systematic step-by-step process for analyzing the cause of the failure, starting with the initial collection of background information, and ending with the laboratory analysis of samples. The first five videos, covering the field assessment, were filmed at an actual jobsite and are narrated by KTA President, Ken Trimber. The sixth video covering the Laboratory Forensic Analysis was filmed in the KTA laboratory and is narrated by KTA Senior Chemist, Chrissy Stewart.
The second video in this series is embedded below. One additional video will be released every Friday at noon for the next four weeks, so be sure to check back every Friday through Oct 7 to view the next installment. We will also be sending out an email reminder containing the next part to those who are on our contact list.
