Technical data sheets were obtained and reviewed for acceptable product application parameters. Several coatings were used and coating characteristics were evaluated.

In May 2021, testing was done on Sherwin-Williams' part numbers F93H704 and F93G704, which did not perform up to our requirements. There was a significant amount of blistering (paint defect) that occurred during the testing, when applied by roller the texture of the paint did not leave a smooth finish, the sheen was inconsistent (glossier in areas with higher millage), and overall, use of this product did not result in a uniform finish.

Responses received will be evaluated; however a determination by the Government not to compete the proposed procurement based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government anticipates an award date on or before 8 August 2024.
