�Conclusions
selection	of	protective	coatings	from	literature	alone	is	a	
minefield	– coatings	are	rarely	compared	on	an	equal	basis
oxygen	consumption	is	a	good	predictor	of	protection	from		
corrosion	while	adhesion	tests	are	poor	predictors
evaluation	by	both	physical	and	chemical/electrochemical	
techniques	combined	with	salt	spray	and	real	time	exposure	
suggests	that	wax-based	coatings	were	more	resistant	to	water,	
UV	light	and	salt	than	acrylic-based
selection	of	coatings	is	a	compromise	but	any	coating	is	better	
protection	than	no	coating
reference	coatings	should	either	be	appropriate	or		absent
