Investigation into aluminium metal spray (AMS) in combination with organic paint systems

An Aluminium Meta/ Spray (AMS) coating system, in combination with an epoxy/poiyurethane based organic paint system, is currently recommended for service by the UK Highways Agency to provide durable long-lasting corrosion protection for highway structural steelwork e.g. steel bridges. However, prema...
