5.0 PRE SURFACE PREPARATION:

BLASTING AND
PAINTING PROCEDURE

5.1. Prior to the any actual surface cleaning/coating operation all surface contaminants such
as oil grease and etc. Shall be removed and solvent cleaning according to SSPC – SP
1.The degreased surface shall be further washer with fresh water to remove all traces of
degreases chemicals.

5.2 For completed fabricated items, all welds shall be free from arc strikes, weld spatters,
unacceptable weld, undercuts, slag and other unacceptable weld defects as per visual
inspection acceptance criteria as stipulated in ASME 31.3.

5.3 All edges shall be ground to minimum radius of 2mm, flame cut areas shall be ground
flush. If this is not the case owners/client shall be informed, and corrective action shall
be taken prior to final surface preparation.

5.4 All manufacturer’s identification tags, machined surface, instrument items, finished
flange faces, control valve items and similar items shall be protection and cover

6.0 SURFACE PREPARATIONS:

Surface preparations are describe as follow:

6.1 Blast cleaning surface shall be blasted clean in accordance with SSPC – SP 10 near
white metal finish or equivalent to surface finish of SIS 05 59 00 Sa 2.5. The abrasive
used for this open blast shall be garnet of size 30/60 mesh as to achieve an average
surface profile as per painting data sheet.

6.2 Power Tool Cleaning surface shall be in accordance with SSPC-SP 3 ( SIS 05 59 00 St-
3) preparing steel surface by the use of power assisted hand tools .The shall be treated
mush more thoroughly to give a metallic sheen arising from the metallic substrate.

6.3 Hand Tool Cleaning surface shall be in accordance with SSPC – SP 2. ( SIS 05 59 00 .
St2) is a method steel surface by the use of non-power hand tools. The surface shall be
free from visible oil, grease and dirt, and from poorly adhering mill scale, rust, paint
coatings and foreign matter.

6.4 Solvent Cleaning accordance to SSPC- SP 1 is a method for removing all visible oil,
grease, soil, drawing and cutting compounds, and other soluble contaminants from steel
surfaces prior to the surface preparation and application of paint.

6.5 Laminations, scabs and underlying mill scale exposed during blast cleaning shall be
removed and repaired accordingly acceptable to standard and specification.

6.6 Any surface preparation shall be stop immediately if the condition of weather not
satisfy ( e.g rain, heavy wind, fog, mist ) or surface temperature is less than 3 deg. C
above dew point and when the relative humidity is greater than 85% . Where ‘shop

primed ‘ is applied with Inorganic Zinc Primer, the primed surfaces may be spot and
sweep blasted to removed any rusting prior to full coating application.

BLASTING AND
PAINTING PROCEDURE

6.7 For Blasted and Surface Preparation every prior to coating shall be inspected by
Painting Inspector to verify and record the surface standard preparation and profile
height.

7.0 APPLICATION OF COATING SYSTEM:

7.1 Surfaces shall not be coated in rain, heavy wind, fog, mist or surface temperature is less
than 3 deg. C above dew point, when the relative humidity is greater than 85% except
for Inorganic Zinc Silicate. The substrate temperature shall not exceed the paint
manufacturer‘s recommendation ( in most cases not exceeding 50 deg.C ) during
application of any coating.

7.2 Blast cleaned surfaces shall be coated with one complete application of primer.
Priming to be done immediately after blasting.

7.3 To the maximum extent practical, each coat of material shall be applied as a continuous
film of uniform thickness free of pores. Any thin spots or areas missed permitted to dry
before the next coat is applied.

7.4 Each coat shall be in a proper state of cure of dryness and shall be before the
application of the succeeding coat. Paint manufacturer’s recommendation concerning
cure times for various types of paint shall be followed.

7.5 Before spraying each coat, all areas such as corners, edges, welds, small brackets,
bolts/nuts and interstices shall be pre coated by brush ‘Stripe Coating’ to ensure that
these areas have at least the minimum specified film thickness.

7.6 Brush and roller application of paint will not be used unless exception is granted by
client/owner and then application shall be in accordance with the paint manufacturer’s
recommendations.

7.7 Any of paint can be applied either conventional or airless spray suitable the size of air
cap, tip, nozzles, air pressure and etc. Application shall be in accordance with the
recommended by the paint manufacturer.

7.8 Use only recommended thinner as per data sheet painting if paint dilute is required.

8.0 DRYING OF COATED SURFACES:

8.1 No coat shall be applied until the preceding coat had dried. The material shall be
considered dry for interval coat, when another coat can be applied without the
development of any film irregularities such as lifting or loss of adhesion of undercoats
and the drying time of the applied coat does not exceed the maximum specified for it as
a first coat.

8.2 No paint shall be force dried under conditions, which will cause cracking, wrinkling,
blistering, and formation of pores or detrimentally affect the condition of the paint.

BLASTING AND
PAINTING PROCEDURE

8.3 No drier shall be added to paint on the job unless specifically called for in the
manufacturer’s paint specification.

9.0 REPAIR OF PAINT DAMAGE SURFACES:

BLASTING AND
PAINTING PROCEDURE

9.1 Before application of any coat, all damage areas to previous coats shall be repaired.

9.2 Area with inadequate coating thickness shall be thoroughly cleaned and, if applied until
they meet the required film thickness. These additional coat shall blend in with the final
coating on adjoining areas.

9.3 If condensation, rain, dust, or other foreign material contaminates or necessary, abraded
and additional compatible coats shall be settles on the surface of a paint coat which is
not touch dry, the paint shall be removed, the surface re-cleaned and fresh paint applied
in accordance with this specification.

9.4 Damaged areas where steel surface are not exposed shall be cleaning to remove all
contamination, The coating around the damaged area shall be chamfered, to ensure
continuity of the patch coating. The full coating system shall then be re-applied.

9.5 Damaged areas down to bare steel shall be repair as originally specified for that item
and the full coating system re-applied. The cleaning shall be extended over the
surrounding coating not less than 25 mm on all sides and the edges shall be chamfered.

10.0 INSPECTION:

10.1 All work and material applied under this specification shall be subject to inspection by
a Company representative.

10.2 All parts of the work shall be readily accessible to the inspector.

10.3 Each of the following shall be approved by Client before proceeding with any
subsequent phase:
a) Location of work
b) Equipment
c) Surface preparation
d) First coat
e) Each subsequent coat

10.4 Applicator shall correct work found defective under this specification at no cost to the
Company.

10.5 Every coating thickness shall be determined by calibrated DPT such as Elcometer thickness
gauge or comparable instrument.

10.6 All layers of coating shall be inspected against any defects and DFT checked and recorded.
