lf a contractor is using a poorly maintained compressor to supply air for abrasive blast
cleaning and conventional airspray, the coating inspector should perform a -
answersBlotter test for the presence of oil and water.
Upon arrival of coating materials, the inspector should - answersObserve and document
the amount of material and batch numbers
Relative humidity is - answersA measure of the amount of moisture in the air compared
to saturation level
