3.11 Areas to be welded subsequent to coating shall be marked to a distance of 75mm from the

weld area prior to coating

3.12 Blast Cleaning

3.12.1 Abrassive Blast Cleaning

The surfaces shall be blast cleaned using one of the abrasives: Al2O3 particles, chilled cast

iron or malleable iron and steel at a pressure of 7kg/cm² at appropriate distance and angle

depending on nozzle size maintaining constant velocity and pressure. Chilled cast iron,

malleable iron and steel shall be in the form of shot or grit of size not greater than 0.055"

maximum; and 0.04" minimum. Copper or Nickel slag or Garnet as abrasives will also be

suitable having mesh size in the range of G-16 to G-24 confirming to SSPC-AB-1.

Compressed air shall be free from moisture and oil. The blasting nozzles should be venturi

style with tungsten carbide or boron carbide as the materials for liners. Nozzles orifice may

vary from 3/16" to 3/4". On completion of blasting operation, the blasted surface shall be

clean and free from any scale or rust and must show a Grey white metallic lusture. Primer

or first coat of paint shall be applied within 4 hours of surface preparation and at least one

hour prior to sun down of the day it is blasted and before any rusting occurs. Any steel

surface not primed within these limits or that is wet shall be reblasted. Blast cleaning shall

not be done outdoors in bad weather without adequate protection or when there is dew on

the metal which is to be cleaned. Surface profile shall be uniform to provide good key to the

paint adhesion (i.e. 25 to 50). If possible vacuum collector shall be installed for collecting

the abrasives and recycling. No acid washing or other cleaning solutions or solvents shall

be used on metal surfaces after they are blasted. This includes washes intended to prevent

rusting. Bio degradable, water soluble cleaning solution used to clean previously painted

surfaces shall not lift, soften or otherwise damage the existing coating.

5.0 COATING PROCEDURE

5.1 Paint Material (Coating Systems)

5.1.1 The Type, Brand, Number of coats, Colour, and Dry film thickness shall be per 9.0, 10.0 and

11.0 herein

.

5.1.2 Manufacturer’s instructions, including safety precautions, are a part of this specification. In

case of conflict, the manufacturer’s mandatory instructions shall govern.

5.1.3 The compatibility of finishing coat with the primer/tie coat shall be confirmed from the

manufacturer. In no case shall the coatings of different manufacturer be mixed in any one

system.

5.2 Application

Paint application is normally by airless spray. Use of Air spray/brush application can be

followed only after getting written approval by Engineer-in-charge only for limited areas.

5.2.1 Surface shall not be coated in rain, wind, snow, fog, mist, or in areas where injurious

airborne elements exist, when the steel surface temperature is less than 3ºC above dew point

or when the relative humidity is greater than 85%, or when the temperature is below 5ºC. In

case the fabrication yard is selected at such a place where normal temperature is below 5ºC,

the contractor shall propose alternate coating procedure for Company’s approval at the

bidding stage itself. The company(owner) has the right to suspend the application of coating

when the damage to the coating may result from actual or impending weather conditions.

5.2.2 Blast cleaned surfaces shall be coated with one complete application of primer as soon as

practicable but in no case later than 4 hours on the same day as blast cleaned. Coating shall

not be applied within 75mm of an un-blasted surface.

5.2.3 To the maximum extent practicable, each coat of material shall be applied as a continuous

film of uniform thickness free of pores. Any thin spots or areas missed in the application

shall be re-coated and permitted to dry before the next coat is applied.

5.2.4 To reduce the possibility of inter-coat contamination and assure proper adhesion between

successive coats, all coats shall be applied as soon as possible after the minimum specified

drying time of the preceding coat. Material shall be considered dry for recoating when an

additional coat can be applied without the development of any detrimental film

irregularities, such as lifting or loss of adhesion of the undercoat.

5.2.5 When successive coats of the same color have been specified, alternate coats shall be tinted,

when practical, sufficiently to produce enough contrast to indicate complete coverage of the

surface. When the material is the color of the steel, or when the tinting of the final coat is

objectionable, the first coat to be applied shall be tinted. The tinting material shall be

compatible with the coating material and not detrimental to its service life.

5.2.6 Brush application of paint shall be in accordance with the following:

a. Brushes shall be of a style and quality that will enable proper application of paint.

Round or oval brushes are most suitable for rivets, bolts, irregular surfaces, and

rough or pitted steel. Wide, flat brushes are suitable for large flat areas, but they

shall not have a width over five inches.

b. The brushing shall be done so that a smooth coat as nearly uniform in thickness as

possible is obtained.

c. Paint shall be worked into all corners.

d. Any runs or sags shall be brushed out.

e. There shall be a minimum of brush marks left in the applied paint.

f. Surfaces not accessible to brushes shall be painted by daubers or sheep skin.

5.2.7 Air spray application shall be in accordance with the following:

The equipment used shall be suitable for the intended purpose, shall be capable of properly

atomizing the paint to be applied and shall be equipped with suitable pressure regulators and

gauges. The air caps, nozzles, and needles shall be those recommended by the manufacturer

of the equipment for the material being sprayed. The equipment shall be kept in satisfactory

condition to permit proper paint application.

Traps or separators shall be provided to remove oil and condensed water from the air. These

traps or separators must be of adequate size and must be drained periodically during

operations. The air from the spray gun impinging against the surface shall show no

condensed water or oil.

Ingredients shall be kept properly mixed in the spray pots or containers during application

by continuous mechanical agitation.

The pressure on the material in the pot and of the air at the gun shall be adjusted for

optimum spraying effectiveness. The pressure on the material in the pot shall be adjusted

when necessary for changes in elevation of the gun above the pot. The atomizing air

pressure at the gun shall be high enough to properly atomize the paint but not so high as to

cause excessive fogging of paint, excessive evaporation of solvent, or loss by over spray.

Spray equipment shall be kept sufficiently clean so that dirt, dried paint, and other foreign

materials are not deposited in the paint film. Any solvent left in the equipment shall be

completely removed before applying paint to the surface being painted.

Paint shall be applied in uniform layer, with overlapping at the edge of the spray pattern.

The spray pattern shall be adjusted so that the paint is deposited uniformly. During

application, the gun shall be held perpendicular to the surface and at a distance which will

ensure that a wet layer of paint is deposited on the surface. The trigger of the gun should be

released at the end of each stroke.

All runs and sags shall be brushed out immediately or the paint shall be removed and the

surface repainted.

Areas inaccessible to the spray gun shall be painted by brush; if not accessible by brush

daubers, or sheepskins shall be used. Brushes shall be used to work paint into cracks

crevices, and blind spots which are not adequately painted by spray.

Particular precautions are necessary in spraying inorganic zinc. These are listed in the

manufacturer’s instructions.

5.2.8 Airless spray application shall be in accordance with the following procedure: as per steel

structure paint Manual Vol.1 & Vol.2 by SSPC, USA, Air less spray relies on hydraulic

pressure rather than air atomisation to produce the desired spray. An air compressor or

electric motor is used to operate a pump to produce pressures of 1,000 to 6,000 psi. Paint is

delivered to the spray gun at this pressure through a single hose within the gun, a single

paint stream is divided into separate streams, which are forced through a small orifice

resulting in atomization of paint without the use of air. This results in more rapid coverage

with less over spray. Airless spray usually is faster, cleaner, more economical and easier to

use than conventional air spray.

Airless spray equipment is mounted on wheels, and paint is aspirated in a hose that sucks

paint from any container, including drums. The unit shall have inbuilt agitator that keep the

paint uniformly mixed during the spraying. The unit shall consists of inbuilt strainer. Usually

very small quantities of thinning is required before spray. In case of High Build epoxy

coatings(two pack). 30:1 pump ratio and 0.020-0.023" tip size will provide a good spray

pattern. Ideally fluid hoses should not be less than 3/8" ID and not longer than 50ft to obtain

optimum results.

In case of gun choking, de-choking steps shall be followed immediately.

5.2.9 All nameplates, manufacturers’ identification tags, machined surfaces, instrument glass,

finished flange faces, control valve stems and similar items shall be masked to prevent

coating deposition.

5.2.10 If these surfaces are coated the component shall be cleaned and restored to its original

condition.

5.2.11 Edges of structural shapes and irregular coated surfaces shall be coated first and an extra pass

made latter.

5.2.12 Wet paint shall be protected against contamination from dust or other foreign matter.

5.3 Drying of Coated Surfaces

5.3.1 No coat shall be applied until the preceding coat has dried. The material shall be considered

dry for re-coating 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.

5.3.2 No paint shall be force dried under conditions which will cause checking, wrinkling,

blistering, formation of pores, or detrimentally affect the condition of the paint.

5.3.3 No drier shall be added to paint on the job unless specially called for in the manufacturer’s

specification of the paint.

5.3.4 Paint shall be protected from rain, condensation, contamination, snow and freezing until dry

to the fullest extent practicable.

5.4 Repair of Damaged Paint Surfaces.

5.4.1 Where shop paint has been damaged in handling, all damaged and loosely adhering paint

shall be removed and the surface thoroughly cleaned. Edges of the breaks shall be

feathered, and the designated number of prime and finish coats applied to the thickness

specified.

6.0 INSPECTION

Procedures for testing and documentation for quality control shall be prepared prior to the

initial start up of any work covered by this specification. The procedure shall include
