By using paint systems, you can apply more
than one coat of paint for an estimating job. When you
select a paint system in an estimating job, Tekla
PowerFab calculates the applicable costs and adds them to the estimate. Note that globally
available paint systems need to be created before creating the estimating jobs where you
want to use them. Otherwise, the paint systems will not be available.
