The Electrocoat Association will hold an Ecoat Boot Camp, September 11-12, in Ridgeland, Mississippi, which includes a tour of Systems Electrocoating’s facility in nearby Jackson.

The group says industry experts have designed this interactive program to meet the varying technical needs of electrocoaters and those interested in learning more. Attendees will review the basics of ecoat before taking a deeper dive into cost and process efficiencies, quality control, troubleshooting and innovative technology. 

The workshop, facility tour and round-trip transportation are included in the registration fee, as is a copy of the textbook Electrocoating: A Guidebook for Finishers.
