I am having a hard time wrapping my head around a "coal tar bottom paint". Never heard of it.

A friend of mine was working on a sewage treatment project once. He had to repaint some steel tanks that were coated with coal tar. He said he tried in vain to sandblast it, but it wouldn't touch it. So I said, why are you even trying to remove it if it's on there that good? It doesn't seem like you could do any better than that. But apparently that's what they wanted for some reason Bill On Sun, Apr 4, 2021, 1:25 PM Dave S via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com>> wrote: Funny stuff - clogs sanding/grinding discs then burns.... which kinda works. acetone does dissolve it but it’s not a practical approach. The stuff is cracking and appears to be drying on the surface, though is rubbery when removing. - have been painting anti fouling over it but I expect I’ll need to renew before long. Any suggestions as to how to remove? Thanks, Dave Sent from my iPhone Thanks to all of the subscribers that contributed to the list to help with the costs involved.
