PART 5: SPECIFIC TASKS

5.1. Basic Services. The contractor shall provide services for the T-64B restoration in the form of Removal of old paint and flaking, removal of old markings, decals, prior protective coating with the use of vacuum recovery systems. Removal of coatings and paint will be recovered IAW stated EPA and OSHA standards. All damage and corrosion shall be identified and repaired/replaced or mitigated as part of painting. Surfaces shall be properly sanded and prepared for painting. Any structural damage, corrosion, and deterioration shall be repaired. All markings shall be painted on as original configuration. The use of decals shall not be authorized.

All painting and markings shall be of original period design and color. All paints shall be matched with appropriate Federal Stock Number (FSN) colors per historic period. All rubber parts shall be cleaned with soap and water, then once completely dry treaded with Armor-All.

5.1.1 Project Schedule: The contractor shall prepare and present to the COR a proposed project schedule, complete with meeting and milestone dates, for COR approval IAW CDRL A003. The contractor shall, during the course of the project, track the project to see that the project remains on schedule.

5.1.2 Artifact Photo-documentation: The contractor shall fully and comprehensively photo-document all surfaces to be prepared and restored as part of the restoration process IAW CDRL A004. This will ensure that any remnants of original markings or paint/coatings will be recorded and available for reference once surface preparation has been completed. These reference photos may assist greatly with the later re-application or paint/coatings and markings once that process has commenced. All such photos and documentary records created as part of this process will also be provided to the COR as part of a comprehensive post-restoration report (see ¶ 5.1.8).

5.1.3 Artifact Surface Cleaning and Preparation: The contractor shall undertake the full cleaning of all exterior artifact surfaces in advance of any required coating removal. Initial surface cleaning and preparation shall be performed prior to any succeeding steps in order to best

Original Page 10 of 18 determine the physical condition of the artifact, locate and note any areas of particular challenge related to deterioration or other issue, and to ensure that historic materials will be preserved to the greatest extent possible during the surface coating removal and repainting preparation processes.

5.1.4 Artifact Abatement: If required and authorized, the contractor shall undertake the abatement of all hazardous materials should be performed. This may include the removal and capture of potentially toxic fluids such as Petroleum/Oil/Lubricants (POLs); the removal and proper disposal of batteries of all types; the removal and/or depressurization of pressurized fire suppression systems (determined on a per- case basis); encapsulation and marking (or removal if authorized) of all radiological sources and materials, such as Radium paint, Tritium, and/or Cesium; the demilitarization and/or rendering inoperative of main and support weapons systems (if present); and removal or identification of other materials that could pose a hazard to museum patrons and staff.

5.1.5 Artifact Failed Coating Removed: The contractor shall fully and properly prepare all exterior (and interior, if required) surfaces for repainting and re-marking through the removal of failed paint and coatings, as well as surface corrosion and debris, if present. While it is desirable to retain as much original materials and components as possible, it is also understood that the failure of original or replacement paint and coatings often leads to the need for cosmetic restoration. This being the case, the contractor shall use a method(s) of surface paint/coating removal and preparation appropriate to the task of fully preparing the underlying substrate material for the re-application and remarking of paint, coatings and markings. It should be noted that artifacts of this type are very rare, often one-of-a kind, and great care shall be taken to induce no damage to any part of the artifact. All work shall be completed IAW all Federal, State, and local environmental and safety regulations. All work shall be completed in a manner which allows for 100% material collection upon removal. Any such paint/coating removal methods and materials proposed shall be authorized by the contract COR and SME before such work can commence. Any method used should fully remove all paint/coatings and properly prepare all surfaces for new coating application. All paint coating removal processes shall involve the use of manual sanding or media blasting to remove old coatings. The uses of stripping solvents WILL NOT be authorized due to long term effects on the artifact. A compatible primer shall be used followed by at least two topcoats of paint.

5.1.6 Limited Parts Removal and Refurbishment: If required and authorized, the contractor may remove, refurbish and reinstall historic parts, components and materials. If parts or components are deemed to be too deteriorated to be reasonably restored, period-manufactured replacement parts of the exact same fit, finish and construction may be considered on a per-case basis. If no such parts or components are available, alternatives may be considered to include new fabrication of parts/components to replicate the original historic material as closely as possible (in-kind repair), assuming original materials and fabrication methods are replicated as closely as possible to the original. All such fabricated parts shall be created using as close to original materials and methods of manufacture as possible, and all shall be clearly marked as non-original and documented in the artifact's permanent record. In rare cases, damaged parts or components may be considered for use as a positive mold for resin casting or 3-Dimensional (3D)

Original Page 11 of 18 printing as part of the creation of a 1-for-1 replica part that can be made to appear exactly like the original. No such repair or replacement shall be performed unless explicitly authorized by the contract COR and SME. Replacement of tires, rubber components, plastic, or other natural or synthetic materials may be considered on a per-case basis, though only after consultation with and approval of the contract COR and SME. Only period-original or, if unavailable, period-correct replacement materials may be used if replacement is authorized. Under no circumstances will the contractor undertake any part/component/material removal without first notifying the COR and SME of the need to do so and receiving authorization to proceed.

5.1.7 Primer, Surface Coating and Marking Reapplication: Once all surfaces to be cosmetically restored have been prepared, the contractor shall apply new paint and markings of period-correct color, material formulation, and application scheme to all surfaces being cosmetically restored.

Correct Federal Standard colors and markings appropriate for the era being represented by the artifact must be used, and all primer and paint formulations must similarly match paint formulations used when the artifact was in active service. Authenticity and historical integrity are paramount as part of any cosmetic restoration, and as such only original materials and methods will be authorized. Deviations or substitutions may be considered on a per-case basis, though no such change or substitution is to be performed with express authorization from the contract COR. Sensitive areas will be covered with protective materials during preparation and the repainting process. Decals will not be authorized for exterior marking (such as national insignias, etc.). Any petroleum seeps will be identified and mitigated prior to application of coating.

5.1.8 Final Written and Photographic Completion Report: Upon completion and approval of all restoration work performed, the contractor shall provide to the COR a detailed photographic and written report to fully document restoration of the artifact. As work progresses, photos must be taken to document the process and progress made, and all such photos and written reports shall be included in the final post-restoration report provided by the contractor to the COR IAW CDRL A005. All such photographs and written records shall become part of the restored artifact's permanent historical property record so that all work performed, and methods and materials used, shall be preserved for future reference.
