Seek NDT tools : Crack detection with Red and white paint
(OP)
I would like to know how I can obtain the tools for crack detection on metal surface with "paint" method. Someone tells me that there is a special tool which consists of red and white paints. After applying the two paints, the cracks will be "stained" red. Then, it is easy to see a red crack on the white surface. Does anybody provide me this information? Anyone knows this product?
Thank you very much!
Thank you very much!
