Input
Blistering, during drying, concrete substrate, 28°C air, 38°C substrate, 88% RH, damp surface, porous undercoat, thick wet film.
Expected result
Moisture trapped under film should rank near the top. Check dew-point spread, substrate moisture, and ventilation first.
Input
Cratering, localized pattern, oil/silicone contamination, spray application, high sun load.
Expected result
Oil or silicone contamination should lead the ranking. Clean the surface and verify spray air quality before recoating.
Input
Blushing, solventborne coating, low temperature, high humidity, poor ventilation.
Expected result
High humidity blushing should rise to the top. Increase the dew-point gap and wait for better conditions.
Yes. The wizard ranks causes from all selected symptoms together, which is useful when one job shows several defects at once.
Temperature affects flash-off, cure speed, condensation risk, and solvent release. Those effects can trigger blistering, pinholing, cratering, and blushing.
It shows the alternate language name next to the local label so cross-border teams can talk about the same defect or cause without guesswork.
So another person can restore the exact same diagnosis state without re-entering all the field notes.
Add more clues: environment, substrate moisture, contamination, film thickness, mix ratio, pot life, and recoat timing usually help the ranking a lot.
The gap between substrate temperature and dew point. A small gap raises condensation and blushing risk.
The early evaporation stage after application. If it is too fast, pinholing and cratering become more likely.
The usable time after mixing a two-component product. Once it expires, cure and flow become unreliable.
The time window in which the next coat can bond correctly to the previous coat.
Gas or moisture escaping from the substrate and pushing through the coating film.
A hazy or whitish appearance caused by moisture, solvent balance, or cure problems.
