PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 CLEANING AND PREPARATION OF SURFACES.

Surfaces to be painted shall be clean before applying paint. Deposits of grease and oil shall be removed in accordance with SSPC SP 1, prior to blast-cleaning. Following solvent cleaning, surfaces shall be dry blast-cleaned to SSPC SP 10. The blast profile shall be 1.5 to 2.5 mils as measured by ASTM D 4417, Method C. Appropriate abrasive blast media shall be used to produce the desired surface profile and to give an angular anchor tooth pattern.

If recycled blast media is used, an appropriate particle size distribution shall be maintained so that the specified profile is consistently obtained. Steel shot or other abrasives that do not produce an angular profile shall not be used.

Weld spatter not.dislodged by blasting shall be removed with impact or grinding tools and the areas re-blasted prior to painting. All sharp edges shall be ground down to a 1/16 inch radius minimum. Surfaces shall be dry at the time of blasting. Within 8 hours after cleaning, prior to the deposition of any detectable moisture, contaminants, or corrosion, all ferrous surfaces blast cleaned to SSPC SP 10 shall be cleaned of dust and abrasive particles by brush, vacuum cleaner, and/or blown down with clean, dry, compressed air, and given the first coat of paint.

3.2 PAINT APPLICATION.

3.2. 1 General.

The finished coating shall be free from holidays, pinholes, bubbles, runs, drops, ridges, waves, laps, unnecessary brush marks, and variations in color, texture, and gloss. All paint coats shall be applied in such manner as to produce an even, continuous film of uniform thickness. Edges, corners, crevices, seams, joints, welds, rivets, and other surface irregularities shall receive special attention to insure that they receive an adequate thickness of paint. Spray equipment shall be equipped with traps, separators, mechanical agitators, pressure gages, pressure regulators, and screens or filters. Air caps, nozzles, and needles shall be as recommended by the spray equipment manufacturer for the material being applied.

3.2.2 Atmospheric and Surface Conditions.

Paint shall be applied in an enclosed and heated building (shop). Paints shall be applied to surfaces that are completely free of moisture as determined by sight and touch. Minimum temperature in the shop at time of painting shall be 50 degrees.

3.2.3 Time between Surface Preparation and Painting.

Surfaces that have been cleaned and/or otherwise prepared for painting shall be primed as soon as practicable after such preparation has been completed, but in any event, prior to any deterioration of the prepared surface.

3.2.4 Protection of Painted Surfaces.

Items that have been painted shall not be handled, worked on, or otherwise disturbed until the paint coat is fully dry and hard. All metalwork coated in the shop prior to final erection shall be stored out of contact with the ground in such manner and location as will minimize the formation of water-holding pockets, soiling, contamination, and deterioration of the paint film, and damaged areas of paint on such metalwork shall be cleaned and touched up without delay.

3.3 LOCATION OF PAINTING WORK.

All painting shall be performed in the shop.

3.4 EPOXY ZINC-RICH PAINT (FORMULA E-303d)

3.4.1 Mixing

Epoxy zinc-rich primer (Formula E-303d) is a three-component paint which must be field mixed. The pot life of the mixed material, extended from time to time by the addition of small amounts of thinner, will normally be in excess of 24 hours but may be less in warm weather. It is packaged as a 2.85-gallon kit (mixed paint volume) consisting of 1 gallon of Component A, 1 gallon of Component B, and 50 pounds of zinc dust, Component C. To prepare this primer for application, combine Components A and B and thoroughly mix. Then sift the zinc dust into this mixture while it is being vigorously agitated with a heavy-duty power stirrer and continue the stirring until the zinc dust has been well dispersed, and the mixture is smooth. The mixed paint shall at some point be strained through a 30-60 mesh screen to prevent undispersed zinc dust slugs from reaching the spray gun nozzle.

3.4.2 Thinning

When the ambient and/or steel temperatures are below about 80 degree F, this paint will not normally require over 15 percent thinning; but in any event, the paint shall at all times contain sufficient volatiles (thinners) to permit it to be satisfactorily atomized to provide a wet spray and avoid deposition of particles that are semidry when they reach the surface. Where thinning is required, either methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) or Alc-50 shall be used, with the latter preferred for general use.

3.4.3 Application

Conventional type (air atomization) spray equipment consisting of a paint pot with an agitator, 3/8-inch material hose, and a spray gun with an air cap, tip, and needle suitable for spraying lacquers and vinyl type paints for applying this paint. The paint shall be stirred continuously during application at a rate that will prevent the zinc dust from settling. When spraying is resumed after any interruption of longer than 15 minutes, the entire length of material hose shall be whipped vigorously until any settled zinc is re-dispersed. The hose shall be emptied whenever the painting operation is to be suspended for more than 1 hour. Epoxy zinc-rich paint (Formula E-303d) shall be spray applied, except that areas inaccessible to spraying shall be brushed. This paint shall not be applied when the temperature of the ambient air and the receiving surfaces is less than 50 degree F. It shall be applied in not less than two single spray coats with no limitations as to the minimum drying time between coats, provided that recoating does not cause running and sagging. Up to a maximum of 8 days drying time between coats will be permitted provided that the first coat is void-free and of such thickness as to prevent rusting; the spray passes of the second coat shall be at right angles to those of the first coat where practicable. Each coat of E-303d paint shall consist of a preliminary, extra spray pass on edges, corners, interior angles, seams, crevices, junctions of joining member, rivets, weld lines, pits and similar surface irregularities, followed by an overall 350 square feet per gallon (based upon un-thinned paint). Pits, cracks, and crevices shall be filled with paint insofar as practicable, but in any event, all pits surfaces shall be thoroughly covered and all cracks and crevices shall be sealed against the entrance of moisture.

Rivets, bolts and similar surface projections shall receive sprayed paint from every direction to ensure complete coverage of all faces.
