recommendation if they are more stringent. Refer to paragraph 3.3 for comparison of ISO grades,
SSPC grades and NACE grades.
4.1.5 After the specified standard has been achieved, all dust, debris and abrasive residues shall be
removed from the blasted, hand or power tool cleaned surface and the surface shall be painted before
contamination or flash rusting occur.
4.1.6 Rough welds, sharp edges, etc., shall be ground smooth prior to blasting.
