I would love to have access. I am intent on gaining as much information on thermal spray as possible and welcome having any conversations I can with members more experienced than me. I have 10 years on thermal spray behind me and have just opened my own facility 1 year ago. Everyday is a new learning day, so any help on my education is much appreciated. I especially like the fact that I can ask technical questions and get informed, technical answers. I have many textbooks, but am not an engineer. SOmetimes it easier to understand in plain english!

Regards,
Brad

Dear Gordon,

As I have previously made a survey of TSA on pipes for a norwegian project, I would like to get acces to this area. I can share my experience as I'm a coating inspector since 2005 (Nace). I'm not often on this forum but nevertheless, It's quite an accurate and a reliable one. Please provide me an access whenever you can.

Is there any danger igniting acetylene in preheat mode on metco 6c with flows at air 12 oxy 37 and acy 55? Engineer swears that this is the correct method but wont these flows cause backfires and flamebacks? I am pretty sure that its supposed to be in idle. On one ocassion the flame arrestors were triggered and the whole guntip siphon plug orings melted and disintegrated. How dangerous is it for an operator to utilize igniting the gun on full flows?

[Stephen Booth]

Yes, I think it is very dangerous. The middle position is the lighting position.
