23
Q

A blend of high performance resins combined with fluoropolymer lubricants. They are formulated with a superior solid film lubricant that controls abrasion by substantially reducing friction.

A

Fluoropolymer

24
Q

One of the most common industrial coatings.

A

Epoxy

25
Q

A chemical treatment is applied to steel parts that creates a thin adhering layer of iron, zinc, or manganese phosphates, to achieve corrosion resistance, lubrication, or as a foundation for subsequent coatings or painting

A

Phosphate

26
Q

These coatings work by forming a barrier between the steel and its surrounding environment.

A

Inorganic Zinc

27
Q

Common home improvement technique that uses a thin layer of joint compound to smooth out textured walls or repair damaged drywall to its original smooth surface

A

Skimcoat

28
Q

A protective coating that is applied to masonry in order to protect it from external agents and damage. A mixture between a mortar and a binder (hardener) that allows to adhere to the wall

A

Plasters

29
Q

The best bet when it comes to plastering
exterior walls because it is moisture-resistant and will protect the wall against climate changes as well as environmental pollution.

A

Cement Plasters

30
Q

A ready-made plaster and is used after mixing it with water. It is white in color and powder in form

A

Gypsum-Based Plaster

31
Q

Type of Plaster Finishes

A completely smooth and levelled surface is acquired. The mortar prepared for the smooth cast finish is made of cement and fine sand

A

Smooth Cast Finish

32
Q

Also called as spatter dash finish. Mortar used to get rough cast finish consist coarse aggregate along with
cement and sand

A

Rough Cast Finish

33
Q

Type of Finish

Obtained when the plastering is done in two coats. The first coat is provided with zigzag lines. It is because a smooth surface won’t hold a freshly applied coat of mortar.

A

Sand Faced Finish

34
Q

Type Of Finish

The pebbles are lightly pressed into the mortar using a wooden float. This type of Plaster finish normally used for decorative purposes

A

Pebble Dash Finish

35
Q

Type of Finish

Different tools such as steel straight edges or old saw blades are used for scrapping the plastered surface. Scrapped surfaces are usually less liable to cracks

A

Scrapped Finish

36
Q

Type Of Finish

Small pieces of gravel or flint are pressed with a hand on the surface of the plaster.

A

Depeter Finish

37
Q

Type of Finish

Different textures, as well as various ornamental patterns, are created on the surface of plaster.

A

Textured Finish

38
Q

Painting Defects

The elastic tendency of liquids that make them acquire the least surface area possible. This occurs when the forces at the interface of a liquid differ from those within the liquid.

A

Surface Tension

39
Q

Painting Defects

Uneven film thickness, dewetting

CAUSES:
Small cracks formed in the coating. This can occur on
recoat or if coating is applied to solvent sensitive plastics

A

Crawling

40
Q

Painting Defects

Small round depressions in the surface of the coating

CAUSES:
Small particles of a low surface tension
contaminant on the substrate or that embeds in the
coating

A

Craters/Fish eyes

41
Q

Painting Defects

Peeling of paint surface

CAUSES:
Paint containing strong solvents.

A

Peeling

42
Q

Painting Defects

Small cracks formed in the coating.

CAUSES:
This can occur on
recoat or if coating is applied to solvent sensitive plastics.
Application of coatings on plastics where
the paint contains strong solvent

A

Crazing, Cracking

43
Q

Painting Defects

Areas of low gloss or a white haze

CAUSES:
Humidity condenses on the wet paint due to the
cooling effect of solvent evaporation when the
substrate temperature is below the dew point.

A

Loss of gloss, blush

44
Q

Painting Defects

Markings of the brush on paint surface

CAUSES:
Uneven flow of the applied coating.

A

Brush Marks

45
Q

Painting Defects

The formation of fine powder on the surface of the paint
film during weathering, which can cause color fading.

CAUSES:
Extended exposure to moisture and the
harmful radiation of UV rays.

A

Chalking

46
Q

Painting Defects

Paint lifts up and peels away from the substrate due to the
loss of adhesion.

CAUSES:
Application over powdery or chalking
undercoats.

A

Flaking

47
Q

A deposit of mineral salts on surfaces of concrete and masonry walls and/or
floors.

A

Efflorescence

48
Q

CAUSES OF EFFLORESCENCE

A

water containing dissolved salts is brought to the
surface of masonry, the water evaporates and the salts
are left on the surface

49
Q

Effects of Efflorescence

A

Any efflorescence on the surface will provide a
poor, friable base for coatings, preventing
effective adhesion from occurring.

50
Q

How to prevent efflorescence

A

sealing concrete from water penetration using a
penetrating sealer.

51
Q

Type of Brush

These are synthetic brushes made from a blend of nylon and
polyester bristles.

A

POLYESTER/NYLON BRUSHES

52
Q

Type of Brush

Are made from animal hair, usually from hogs, and are best suited for oil-based paints.

A

Natural bristle brushes

53
Q

Type of Brush

These are made from a foam pad and are disposable. They are ideal for applying varnish, shellac, or other clear finishes, as they do not leave brush marks.

A

Foam Brushes

54
Q

Type of Brush

These are designed with a slanted edge, which makes them ideal for cutting in along corners and edges.

A

Angled Brushes

55
Q

Type of Brush

Have a pointed tip and are designed for detail
work and small areas.

A

Round brushes

56
Q

Type of Brush

These are designed with a wide, flat edge and are ideal for
painting large, flat surfaces such as walls or doors. They are
available in both synthetic and natural bristle options

A

Flat Brushes

57
Q

Forcing paint through a small opening or nozzle at high pressure. This creates a fine mist of paint that is sprayed
onto the surface being painted
