Upcoming Webinars

HOW CONCRETE SURFACE PREPARATION IMPACTS COATING INTEGRITY AND SERVICE LIFE
April 21, 2026 - 12 p.m. ET

Improperly prepared concrete surfaces can result in reduced coatings integrity and service life. Up to 80% of all coating failures can be directly attributed to inadequate surface preparation, which affects coating adhesion. To ensure adhesion of the coating to the substrate and prolong the service life of the coating system, selection and implementation of proper surface preparation is required. This webinar will review the different surface preparation methods for concrete, considering the substrate, the environment and the expected life of the coating system specified.  >> REGISTER HERE

This webinar will discuss the requirements for compliance as well as the Sherwin-Williams products that meet compliance for water infrastructure applications. >> REGISTER HERE

SWEATING PIPES, NO PROBLEM!
June 16, 2026 - 12 p.m. ET

Often as an owner or contractor, you are faced with the problem of providing corrosion protection to sweating pipes (water condensing on the exterior of the pipe). This occurs when you have a difference in temperature of the water inside of the pipe and exterior − more condensation occurs on a cold pipe in a warm environment versus a cold pipe in a cold environment. This webinar will highlight critical factors in selecting the right coating solutions for sweating pipes, introduce recent innovations in corrosion protection, and provide valuable insights for both specifiers and applicators. >> REGISTER HERE
