In the petro marine industry, fuel integrity is critical to ensure operational efficiency, safety, and compliance. Contaminated fuel, whether due to water intrusion or improper fuel composition, can lead to engine failure, equipment damage, and costly downtime. This is where Kolor Kut solutions, including Kolor Kut Water Finding Paste and Kolor Kut Gasoline Finding Paste come into play—providing fast, reliable, and precise fuel quality testing for petro marine and industrial applications.
Kolor Kut Water Finding Paste is a highly effective solution for detecting water contamination in fuel storage tanks, pipelines, and marine vessels. Since water and petroleum-based fuels do not mix, even trace amounts of water can cause fuel degradation, microbial growth, and corrosion in storage systems.
This water-detecting paste is applied to the measuring rod or gauge stick and then lowered into the tank. If water is present, the paste changes color, providing an immediate and accurate indication of water levels. Kolor Kut Water Finding Paste is golden brown in color and changes to a brilliant red upon contact with water. Simply apply a thin film of Kolor Kut Water Finding Paste on a clean gauge line or rod approximately where water level is expected to appear. Lower the tape into tank until the bottom is reached. The level will appear by a positive contrast in colors. It is widely used for testing:
Using Kolor Kut Water Finding Paste to detect water contamination can help petro marine professionals avoid costly repairs and downtime. Kolor Kut Water Finding Paste:
While Kolor Kut Water Finding Paste detects water contamination, Kolor Kut Gasoline Finding Paste is designed to determine the exact level of fuel in storage tanks. It is widely used in the oil and gas industry, ensuring accurate fuel volume measurements in:
Kolor Kut Gasoline Finding Paste is light pink in color and turns red upon contact with gasoline, diesel fuel, kerosene, oil, jet fuel, hydrocarbons, or other petroleum products. When applied to a measuring stick and submerged into a fuel tank, it allows operators to determine the exact fuel level, ensuring proper inventory management and preventing overfills or shortages.
For decades, Kolor Kut products have been a trusted name in the petrochemical, marine, and industrial sectors due to their high accuracy, ease of use, and reliability. These pastes are essential tools for fuel quality monitoring, contamination detection, and operational efficiency in a wide range of industries, including:
Ensuring fuel purity and proper storage management is vital for preventing costly equipment failures and maintaining regulatory compliance.
