Re: [MW:27745] Re: water fill up test after painting of storage tank

Hi Manoj,

Normally in API 650 tanks water test is done to analyse the settlement
& to check leak too.

if the tank internal & external is painted, it may mask any possible
pin-holes or cracks etc..

So i personally feel that it is better to do before painting. however
expecting experts

opinion on this as well.


Regards,
Sunil kumar
