About Me
I am a Marine Coating Inspector at MCR Marine, supporting superyacht new build and refit projects through QA/QC, inspection and technical reporting activities.
My work spans the entire coating process, from substrate preparation to final finish inspections, carrying out verification and testing activities to ensure compliance with coating specifications, industry standards and project requirements.
I believe that quality is built long before the final finish is applied, through technical expertise, attention to detail and a commitment to doing things right at every stage of the process.
