    Hi All,
    How would you define coating
    Separation?
    Delamination?

    Best regards,

    Hi Bob, 

    my 2 cents, short of coating actually coming loose, I would say possible definitions include,

    1) linear interruptions at the bondline or between layers where a gap is now present that wasn't there at a previous time
