DESCRIPTION

Loss of adhesion of a coating under eaves, porches, or other protected areas.

POSSIBLE CAUSE

• Under eaves, porches, or other protected areas, the natural cleaning effect of weathering does not occur, and air pollution or other contaminants can build up.

• Salts, which can from during the life of the exiting coat, were not removed before the new coat of paint was applied. These salts from an invisible film, preventing a bond with a new topcoat.

• Paints are applied to old and glossy paint films.

• Insufficient surface preparation.

SOLUTION

Follow label and data directions for proper surface preparation methods for the coating. Extra attention should be directed to areas that are not exposed to direct weathering. Test the coating surrounding any peeled areas out about 6” to 12” to be sure the adhesion is adequate.
