Trailer and transport
Trailer and transport face demanding wet/dry cycles, corrosion, abrasion and maintenance constraints. The system should be selected by exposure zone and detail continuity rather than by a generic finish.

Use and application
The application intent is coatings for trailers and transport. Start by qualifying the substrate, exposure, service level and maintenance constraints. Krypton ProLine PU ZN Primer, Krypton ProLine AB85H and Krypton ProLine PU 1000 TC are typical reference products for this application. Compare the current Products and Systems documentation, and use the associated application context at Pickup truck linings to keep the scope distinct.
01
Corrosion, wet/dry cycles and mechanical wear
Marine surfaces combine salt, immersion or splash, UV, abrasion and difficult maintenance windows. Specify zones separately and carry continuity through welds, edges, fixings, joints and repair areas.
02
Layers and references
Define the sequence from prepared substrate through primer or bond coat, functional membrane or body coat, reinforcement where specified, and protective or finish layer where required. Use the current technical data sheet for preparation, mixing, consumption, thickness, overcoat windows and cure; the Calculator supports quantities, while Systems and the product references establish the applicable route.
03
Common mistakes
- Using one generic specification for immersion, splash, atmospheric and internal zones.
- Underestimating preparation at welds, edges, bolts, overlaps and previous repair areas.
- Starting a maintenance window without a recarcoat, inspection and temporary-protection plan.
04
Operating sequence
1. Record the exposure, dimensions, substrate condition and service scenario. 2. Map joints, edges, penetrations, drains, upstands and repair zones. 3. Select a compatible route in Systems and verify every layer against the current technical data sheet. 4. Calculate quantities with the Calculator. 5. Approve a representative area, document preparation and application controls, inspect the completed build-up, and release it only when the project requirements are met.
