Week 6 textures/ materials


At the site visit we were told that the buckets and its components were coated with tar based paint. after further research on this coating i found that:

- only comes in one colour, black. its too hard to dye this type of paint
- used to waterproof all types of materials
- can withstand minor acidity and alkalinity
- its used in marine/ industrial environments

and so for these reason coal tar based paint was suitable for these buckets

the paint is highly viscous and so its good for weatherproofing metals

all elements of the bucket were coated
