Rec. for subsurface paint coatings?
(OP)
Looking for a suitable coating for older Aaderaa current meter pressure cases.
The cases are a steel alloy, originally epoxy coated with an elctrostatic process.
I will simply be bead blasting the old coatings, and spraying with a new paint.
These devices are submerged in in sea water for up to two years at a time.

RE: Rec. for subsurface paint coatings?
I would suggest a Glass Flake reinforced epoxy, solventless would be best, I reckon 500 microns DFT would be appropriate
for this service. (20 mils if you are using stateside terminology.)
