FUNDAMENTALS OF STRIPE COATING
A stripe coat is a coat of paint applied only to edges or welds on steel structures, such as bridges, before or after a full coat is applied to the entire surface. The stripe coat is intended to give those areas sufficient film build to resist corrosion. Stripe coating is an expensive operation and is normally only performed when the cost will be compensated for by the extra service life provided by the coating system. This article discusses under what circumstances stripe coating is deemed necessary, provides a detailed look at stripe coating techniques, and offers conclusions on the merits of stripe coating.
