Don't call them paints or painting systems because they are anything but over-the-counter products that can be applied in your spare time or by the average contractor. Unlike painting systems, special coatings are expensive, difficult to install and maintain, and often require a veritable understanding of the rules that make for a successful application.

Often, special coatings are the only cost effective option available for surface restoration, chemical resistance protection and even abrasion resistance protection. Sometimes these special coatings are used to maintain environmental compliance against spills and the release of harmful agents into the environment and to create a safer anti-slip working surface for employees.

Over the years, special coatings have taken on names such as High Performance Systems, or even Chemical Resistance Coatings (CRC's), however the one thing they will never be called is “cheap”. Today it is common to find special coating costs are a considerable amount more than what was planned for. It is also common to find final coating costs at almost $40.-60.00 per square foot installed, which can be more than the cost of the project area/structure.

PolymerLogix provides information and documentation that enables you to make 'best fit' decisions which will save you as many dollars as possible on special coating projects. PolymerLogix does this through a 4-part question and answer evaluation process. It is this 4-part evaluation that allows PolymerLogix to build customized procedures and material recommendations based on the requirements of the project area (not the requirements of specific product systems).

PolymerLogix question and answer process starts with a structural analysis of the project area. Through this structural analysis PolymerLogix evaluates the primary construction design including any surface or design defects. Next PolymerLogix will lead you through an evaluation of mechanical equipment designs. Then PolymerLogix evaluates the internal conditions of the area, including past or future maintenance schedules and practices. You will complete the evaluation process with a chemistry analysis of the project's operating conditions.

Completion of the project evaluation enables PolymerLogix to create four documents:

• Scope of Work
• Material Recommendations with local contractor services
• Commercial Specification
• Schedule “A” Forms

After downloading and reading the four documents, PolymerLogix will guide you through the process of preparing the Technical Specification and Budget Projections documents.

Take time to explore PolymerLogix unique project systems. PolymerLogix project systems are all designed to maximize coating dollars.

The developers of PolymerLogix are independent and do not represent a specific product line or group, and have spent more than 25 years in the special coating industry. Our developers also have more than a decade of dedication to developing this on-demand software. We believe that PolymerLogix is certain to leave you wondering how something so simple to use can provide so much value.
