Abstract
Coating application on the exterior of ocean going vessels and off shore platforms is normally very time sensitive, and frequently must be performed during times of high humidity, sweating hulls and daily rain showers. This paper will describe the use of solvent free, surface tolerant epoxies that can be applied to wet surfaces during times of very high relative humidity. Both the positive and negative aspects will be covered.
