The paper describes combination of optical and electronic methods together with IR analysis for evaluation of the paint coatings. Based on these methods the fingerprint of each paint layers is identified according to requirements of ISO 12944-9. The database of numerous typical industrial painting systems is created. These data allow to identify composition of the existing systems before their renovation or the mistakes in newly applied painting systems, e.g., different type of binder, pigments, etc.
