Within 8 [eight] hours after cleaning and prior to the deposition of any detectable moisture, contaminants, or corrosion, all surfaces blast cleaned to SSPC SP 7 shall be cleaned of dust and abrasive particle by brush, vacuum cleaner, and/or blown down with clean, dry, compressed air, and given the first coat of paint.

Paint may be applied by spray, roller, or brush. However, any area subject to over-sprays must be fully protected.

No over-spray will be tolerated.

Painting in the vicinity of mechanical or electrical equipment shall be applied by brush if there is a possibility of over-sprays on critical components. All equipment, deck, and bulkhead fixtures must be fully protected. No paint is allowed on the anodes or keel coolers.

Uniform suspension of pigments shall be maintained during application. Each coat of paint shall be applied so dry film shall be of uniform thickness and free from holidays, bubbles, blisters, laps, excessive or unsightly brush marks, runs, drops, ridges, waves, pinholes, or other voids, and variations in color, texture, and finish. Special attention shall be given to ensure that all edges, corners, crevices, seams, junctions of joining members, interior angles, corrosion pits, welds, bolts, rivets, and similar surface irregularities receive a film thickness equal to that of adjacent painted surfaces.

All coats of all painted surfaces shall be unscarred and completely integral at the time of application of succeeding coats.

All painting shall be accomplished before launching the vessel. The vessel shall not be launched before inspection and acceptance by the government.

The contractor is responsible for submitting to the Contracting Officer’s Representative a report of the quantity of sandblast media used and quantity of paint used for the project.

No sandblasting or spray painting is to take place until the Corps of Engineers representative has approved the preventative measures for blast and paint over-spray.

Recommended Recovered Materials Content Ranges:

EPA's Recovered Materials Advisory Notice (RMAN) recommends recycled-content levels for purchasing reprocessed and consolidated latex paint for specified uses as shown in the table below.

EPA's Recommended Recovered Materials Content Levels for Reprocessed and

Consolidated Latex Paints ¹

1EPA's recommendation does not preclude agencies from purchasing paints manufactured from other, non-latex materials, such as oil-based paints. It simply recommends that procuring agencies, when purchasing latex paints, purchase these items made from postconsumer recovered materials when these items meet applicable specifications and performance requirements.

The Contractor shall comply with the clause FAR 52.223-17, Affirmative Procurement of EPA designated Items in Service and Construction Contracts.

Upon completion provide COR with quantities of Sandblast media, paint thinner and paint used.
