Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A coating-inspection calculator and project log for dew point, dry-film thickness, wet-film targets, coverage, readings, photos, and printable daily reports.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-06 issue.

Field notes

CoatSpec structures records around projects and individual work areas, with a four-part workflow covering conditions, DFT, product information, and reporting. Its default example uses Level 3 tolerances of 2.4–6.0 mils for a 3.0–5.0 mil specification, while the page cautions that the PA 2 behavior is a modeled aid rather than the standard itself. Logs remain on the device through localStorage and IndexedDB, with JSON backup and restore for moving records between devices.
