It deals with field and laboratory methods (both analytical and physical) involved in determining the causes of premature paint and coatings failures in the commercial and industrial arena. Practical examples are included to show both the thought processes behind such investigations and how the individual techniques complement each other.
Key features:- Combines coatings chemistry and analytical techniques in one volume, giving both theory and applications
- Case studies of several coatings failures are presented, discussing why specific methods are used followed by an analysis of the results
- Does not assume too great a knowledge of the chemistry involved

I attended a class by the author at the ICE many years ago, and first bought this book for my staff in an earlier positition. Now am buying a second for my new office.
I have since relied more on the author and his services than the book itself, but I was impressed by the careful and comprehensive manner of his investigations he showed in the case studies he presented. Coatings is a small market, and often doesn't require or command the highest talent from us as scientists: I think Dwight is an exception to this tendency, and I trust that this excellence is found within his book.
Great book! Apr 25, 2011

This is a terrific book, really explaining the physics of paint deterioration and the reasons for failure. It is comprehensive with detailed explanations on all paint failures. I really love the section on testing which explains what lab tests to perform and just what they can prove. For example, how do you prove that the paint was improperly mixed or cured? All explained here. Only negative is there are hardly any pictures! A mandatory companion to this is the Visual Comparison Manual by SSPC. A great and rare work.
