3.2 COATING MATERIAL PREPARATION

3.2.1 General

Mix and prepare coating materials in accordance with the coating manufacturer's printed instructions for the particular material and coat to be applied. Keep materials which are not in actual use in closed containers.

Coating materials that have been mixed with an automatic shaker must be allowed to stand to let air bubbles escape, and then given a final hand mixing before application. Stir materials so as to produce a mixture of uniform density. Stir at frequent intervals during application to prevent skinning. Do not stir film which may form on the surface of the material. Remove film and strain, if necessary.

3.2.2 Thinning

Thinning must be done in accordance with coating manufacturer's printed directions for the particular material and coat.

3.2.3 Tinting

Prime and intermediate coats of paint must be a slightly different tint from the finish coat to facilitate identification of each coat. Tinting must be done by the coating manufacturer and clearly identified as to color and coat.

3.3 APPLICATION OF COATING MATERIALS

3.3.1 General

Do not perform exterior painting in damp or rainy weather. Interior painting must not be allowed until the building is enclosed and has thoroughly dried out. Do not allow painting below 50 degrees Fand above 95 degrees F. Painting application must be in accordance with the coating manufacturer's recommendations, and as specified.

Application of coatings must be done by skilled applicators. Apply coatings to clean and properly prepared surfaces. Apply coatings carefully with clean, high-quality application equipment. Allow sufficient time between coats to ensure complete drying and curing.

Surfaces must be sanded and dusted between coatings, as required, to produce a surface free of visible defects. High gloss coatings and clear finishes must be lightly sanded between coats to ensure bond of following coats.

Apply coats to the surfaces in an even film. Do not accept cloudiness, spotting, holidays, laps, application marks, runs, sags, and other similar surface imperfections. Remove defective coating applications and recoat as directed.

Coating lines such as wainscots must be sharp, true, and well-defined. Tape may be used to establish coating lines, providing tape is removed before ragging or sawtooth edges form.

Surfaces, including edges, corners, crevices, welds, and other similar changes in surface plane, must receive a dry-film thickness not less than specified.

3.3.2 Brush Application

Brushes must be clean and the proper size and type for high-quality application of the specified coating materials. Slow-dry coatings must be brushed out. Quick-dry coatings must be brushed only enough to spread out evenly.

3.3.3 Roller Application

Roller covers must be clean and of the proper nap length, nap texture, and material for high-quality application of the specified coating materials.

Roller application must be done carefully and must be equivalent in all respects to the same coats applied by high-quality brush application.

3.3.4 Spray Application

Spray application equipment must be limited to airless-spray equipment and electrostatic-spray equipment. Equipment must be clean and operated by workmen skilled in high quality application of coating materials.

Spray application of coatings must be limited to finish coats on metal frame works, siding, decking, wire mesh, and other surfaces where hand work would be inferior. Sprayed coatings must be carefully applied and equivalent in all respects to the same coats applied by high quality brush application. Each spray coat must be permitted to cure before the succeeding coat is applied. Do not permit doubling back with application equipment, for the purpose of building up film thickness of two coats in one operation.

Surfaces adjacent to areas to be spray coated shall be covered to prevent damage from overspray, coating rebound, and spray drift.

3.3.5 Security Fence

Painting of the Security Fence shall be performed as part of the manufacturing process in accordance with the paint manufacturer’s written specifications.

Onsite field painting shall only be performed to repair minor defects/scratching occurring during the assembly process. All onsite field painting shall be approved by the Contracting Officer's Representative prior to application. Onsite field painting shall be in accordance with the paint manufacturer's written specifications.

3.4 ACCEPTANCE PROVISIONS

3.4.1 Repairing

Remove damaged and unacceptable portions of completed work and replace with new work to match adjacent surfaces at no additional cost to the Government.

3.4.2 Cleaning

At end of each workday, remove rubbish, empty cans, rags, and other discarded materials from Project site.

After completing coating application, clean spattered surfaces. Remove spattered coatings by washing, scraping, or other methods. Do not scratch or damage adjacent finished surfaces.

Application equipment must be cleaned promptly and thoroughly with a suitable solvent after each use and stored in a clean, covered, well-ventilated container.

Protect work of other trades against damage from coating operation. Correct damage by cleaning, repairing, replacing, and recoating, as approved by Architect, and leave in an undamaged condition. At completion of construction activities of other trades, touch up and restore damaged or defaced coated surfaces.

DESCRIPTION OF WORK

This project involves the replacement of the center observation deck and the security fencing at the Soo Locks Facility, located in Sault Ste. Marie Michigan.

The observation deck removal includes the demolition of the existing steel structure and concrete footings, as well as removal of several existing electrical devices that will be reinstalled on the new platform. Construction of the new observation deck includes installing new concrete footings and constructing a new steel structure in the same location as the existing structure. The new structure will have two elevated viewing platforms and will be constructed of galvanized steel with glass walls, a metal roof and an insulated wall panel system. The project also includes reinstallation of various electrical devices and installation of new light fixtures inside the platform and mounted to the exterior of the structure.

The security fence replacement portion of the project will consist of removal of the existing chain link fence that currently separates the publically accessible park from the MacArthur Lock with a black steel fence that matches the existing fence at the street side of the park. The new fence will be installed in the same general location of the existing fence. The new fence will be constructed of shop finished steel with new concrete footings and outward curved security devices installed on the top of the fencing.

Both portions of the project will require temporary security fencing to ensure adequate facility security is maintained during construction.

The Contracting Officer may exercise optional items (see “Evaluation of Options” FAR 52.217-5). Failure to bid on all items will result in a “non-responsive bid.”
