No matter what your industrial coating needs are, we can help – from pipeline wrap and repair, to tank rehabilitation, to crack repair and waterproofing, BCI has a solution that will work.
Containment Leak and Crack Repair
Traditional crack repair with caulking and flexible sealants cannot always handle concrete movement and large temperature fluctuations. SC-3900 seals and bridges hairline cracks and large moving joints to properly seal the area and provide long-lasting protection.
- Bridges large gaps
- Stops active leaks
- Provides high-strength
- Offers superior elongation
- Stops deterioration
- Stops freeze thaw

After: UV and corrosion resistant high-strength coating for tanks.
Tank and Geodesic Dome Roof Repair
Many aboveground storage tanks (ASTs) used in the oil and gas industry have geodesic dome roofs. Typically constructed from aluminum for their corrosion-resistant properties, over time daily thermal expansions and contractions work to create gaps between the panels. These gaps allow corrosive gas vapors and hazardous contaminants to escape from the tank. The gaps also allow humidity, airborne chlorides, and particulates to infiltrate the tank and contaminate its contents.
Traditional methods of repairing geodesic domes–like replacing the panels or sealing gaps with tape–are expensive and labor-intensive. BCI offers an alternative solution with its SC-3900 spray-applied, flexible coating system.
Multiple geodome roofs sealed to prevent future issues
Gaps between panels completely sealed
The coating is applied directly over the seal and cures very quickly. It is much stronger than tape, and chemically resistant to fuels, sulfuric acid and leachate water and the vapors they emit. Additionally, SC-3900 can be applied while the tank is in service, eliminating down time.
Once dry, the flexible coating moves with the tank roof, even as temperature and weather fluctuate. Once the dome roof is sealed with SC-3900, noxious odors and vapor loss are substantially reduced.
