Innovation: 

By applying the Epoxide paint with a self-propelled mobile spraying unit , works could be completed in a faster and more efficient manner.  
By using spray applied (two coat) epoxide paint, the end product would be less susceptible to erosion as well as removing h the need for any hot works permit, as the material was applied cold.
