Polyurea Liner Removal By Water Jetting

painter213

Working on a project where a failed polyurea coating system failed due to a incompatable product was stored in the tank for the liner system that was applied. The liner was three years old and at a thickness of about 125 mils thick. The liner applicator was not at fault here. The fuel terminal knew that the liner was intented for Diesel Fuel service, and they stored a much stronger product and thus destroyed a $40,000 liner system. Now they are looking at $75,000 to replace it. Makes sense doesn't it???? The contractor is cutting the old liner out with a 20,000 psi water jetting.
