NACE CIP 1 CBT EXAM PRACTICE
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 100% PASS
Dew point is the temperature at which - ANS condensation occurs.
You are the NACE Inspector on a tank lining project where a 50% solids epoxy tank lining is
being applied. After application of the 19 coat you notice small blisters in some areas of the
applied lining. Your FIRST preferred course of action is to: - ANS Document the problem and
advise the Contractor and Owner's representative.
If a contractor is using a poorly maintained compressor to supply air for abrasive blast cleaning
and conventional airspray, the coating inspector should perform a - ANS blotter test for the
presence of oil and water.
Upon arrival of coating materials, the inspector should - ANS observe and document the
amount of material and batch numbers.
Relative humidity is - ANS a measure of the amount of moisture in the air compared to
saturation level.
Galvanic corrosion occurs on which of the following substrates? - ANS Metal

,When applying Thermal Spray Coatings the specification is most likely to reference: -
ANS SSPC-CS 23.00/AWS C2.23/NACE No. 12
What is the minimum recommended distance away from an edge that an inspector should take
a measurement with a dial type magnetic pull off Dry Film Thickness(DFT) gauge? - ANS 2.5
cm (1 inch)
Polymerization is the process of? - ANS Monomers joining together.
An exposed area of the substrate or previous coat of a conductive material, often caused by
poor application technique is called: - ANS Holiday
Checking is: - ANS a fine crack in the surface of a coating that rarely reaches the substrate.
Inspection documentation is important because: - ANS Owners use the documentation for a
variety of purposes.
An Inspectors personal log book should contain: - ANS No comments regarding the
application team.
You have just received your NACE CIP Level 1 certification when you are asked to supervise a
team of uncertified field pipeline inspectors. Your FIRST preferred course of action is to: -

, Non Conformance Reports are completed by the Inspector: - ANS When the Inspector and
Contractor deem it to be significant non conforming item.
The initial steel condition is important to the NACE Inspector because: - ANS The Inspector
may have to reject the steel.
The form of corrosion that has the largest potential for unexpected catastrophic failure is: -
ANS Galvanic Corrosion
What is used to determine compressed air cleanliness? - ANS Profilometer
Osmotic blistering is most likely to occur as a result of: - ANS Airless spray application.
When performing tests for oil and grease using an ultra violet light, the NACE Inspector should
be aware that: - ANS Synthetic oil or grease may not be identified.
To achieve consistently accurate results with ALL alt test equipment: - ANS wash your hands
before sampling.
When holiday testing is required the Inspector is always required to enforce what standard? -
ANS NACE SP 0188
If the specifier does not identify a restriction level in accordance with SSPC PA 2, the default
restriction level is: - ANS Level 3
Fine cracks in the surface of a coating that rarely reach the substrate are called: -
ANS Checking
