The Chemical Coaters Association International (CCAI) has released the updated Electrocoating for Industrial Finishing Applications technical manual. This coil bound manual includes new colour graphics and photos. The manual serves as a guide to operating an ecoat system and managing the process for efficiency and profit, along with maintenance and troubleshooting suggestions.
