impair the bond of the various coatings Remove oil and grease before cleaning

1 Schedule cleaning and painting so dust and other contaminants from the cleaning process will not

fall on wet newly painted surfaces

C Surface Preparation Clean and prepare surfaces to be painted according to manufacturers written instruc-

tions for each particular substrate condition and as specified

1 Provide barrier coats over incompatible primers or remove and reprime

2 Ferrous Metals Clean ungalvanized ferrous-metal surfaces that have not been shop coated re-

move oil grease dirt loose mill scale and other foreign substances Use solvent or mechanical

b Touch up bare areas and shop-applied prime coats that have been damaged Wire-brush

clean with solvents recommended by paint manufacturer and touch up with the same pri-

mer as the shop coat

3 Galvanized Surfaces Clean galvanized surfaces with nonpetroleum-based solvents so surface is

free of oil and surface contaminants Remove pretreatment from galvanized sheet metal fabricated

from coil stock by mechanical methods

D Materials Preparation Mix and prepare paint materials according to manufacturers written instructions

1 Maintain containers used in mixing and applying paint in a clean condition free of foreign materi-

als and residue

2 Stir material before application to produce a mixture of uniform density Stir as required during

application Do not stir surface film into material If necessary remove surface film and strain ma-

terial before using

3 Use only thinners approved by paint manufacturer and only within recommended limits

303 APPLICATION

A General Apply paint according to manufacturers written instructions Use applicators and techniques

best suited for substrate and type of material being applied

2 Do not paint over dirt rust scale grease moisture scuffed surfaces or conditions detrimental to

formation of a durable paint film

3 Provide finish coats that are compatible with primers used

4 The term exposed surfaces includes areas visible when permanent or built-in fixtures are in

place Extend coatings in these areas as required

5 Paint surfaces behind movable equipment and furniture the same as similar exposed surfaces Be-

fore the final installation of equipment paint surfaces behind permanently fixed equipment or fur-

niture with prime coat only

6 Paint interior surfaces of ducts with a flat nonspecular black paint where visible through registers

or grilles

7 Finish exterior doors on tops bottoms and side edges the same as exterior faces

B Scheduling Painting Apply first coat to surfaces that have been cleaned pretreated or otherwise pre-

pared for painting as soon as practicable after preparation and before subsequent surface deterioration

1 The number of coats and the film thickness required are the same regardless of application meth-

od Do not apply succeeding coats until the previous coat has cured as recommended by the manu-

facturer If sanding is required to produce a smooth even surface according to manufacturers

written instructions sand between applications

2 Omit primer on metal surfaces that have been shop primed and touchup painted

3 If undercoats stains or other conditions show through final coat of paint apply additional coats

until paint film is of uniform finish color and appearance Give special attention to ensure edges

corners crevices welds and exposed fasteners receive a dry film thickness equivalent to that of

flat surfaces

4 Allow sufficient time between successive coats to permit proper drying Do not recoat surfaces un-

til paint has dried to where it feels firm does not deform or feel sticky under moderate thumb

pressure and where application of another coat of paint does not cause the undercoat to lift or lose

adhesion

the total system for various substrates

302 PREPARATION

A General Remove hardware and hardware accessories plates machined surfaces lighting fixtures and

similar items already installed that are not to be painted If removal is impractical or impossible because

of the size or weight of the item provide surface-applied protection before surface preparation and paint-

ing

1 After completing painting operations in each space or area reinstall items removed using workers

skilled in the trades involved

B Cleaning Before applying paint or other surface treatments clean the substrates of substances that could

impair the bond of the various coatings Remove oil and grease before cleaning

1 Schedule cleaning and painting so dust and other contaminants from the cleaning process will not

fall on wet newly painted surfaces

C Surface Preparation Clean and prepare surfaces to be painted according to manufacturers written instruc-

tions for each particular substrate condition and as specified

1 Provide barrier coats over incompatible primers or remove and reprime

2 Ferrous Metals Clean ungalvanized ferrous-metal surfaces that have not been shop coated re-

move oil grease dirt loose mill scale and other foreign substances Use solvent or mechanical

cleaning methods that comply with the Steel Structures Painting Councils (SSPC) recommenda-

tions

priming

462018

SAR WWTP Substation No 1 Replacement 09900- Page 5 of 8 Painting MWM DesignGroup Inc TBPE Firm MWM-1416

b Touch up bare areas and shop-applied prime coats that have been damaged Wire-brush

clean with solvents recommended by paint manufacturer and touch up with the same pri-

mer as the shop coat

3 Galvanized Surfaces Clean galvanized surfaces with nonpetroleum-based solvents so surface is

free of oil and surface contaminants Remove pretreatment from galvanized sheet metal fabricated

from coil stock by mechanical methods

D Materials Preparation Mix and prepare paint materials according to manufacturers written instructions

1 Maintain containers used in mixing and applying paint in a clean condition free of foreign materi-

als and residue

2 Stir material before application to produce a mixture of uniform density Stir as required during

application Do not stir surface film into material If necessary remove surface film and strain ma-

terial before using

3 Use only thinners approved by paint manufacturer and only within recommended limits

303 APPLICATION

A General Apply paint according to manufacturers written instructions Use applicators and techniques

best suited for substrate and type of material being applied

1 Paint colors surface treatments and finishes are indicated in the schedules

2 Do not paint over dirt rust scale grease moisture scuffed surfaces or conditions detrimental to

formation of a durable paint film

3 Provide finish coats that are compatible with primers used

4 The term exposed surfaces includes areas visible when permanent or built-in fixtures are in

place Extend coatings in these areas as required

5 Paint surfaces behind movable equipment and furniture the same as similar exposed surfaces Be-

fore the final installation of equipment paint surfaces behind permanently fixed equipment or fur-

niture with prime coat only

6 Paint interior surfaces of ducts with a flat nonspecular black paint where visible through registers

or grilles

7 Finish exterior doors on tops bottoms and side edges the same as exterior faces

B Scheduling Painting Apply first coat to surfaces that have been cleaned pretreated or otherwise pre-

pared for painting as soon as practicable after preparation and before subsequent surface deterioration

1 The number of coats and the film thickness required are the same regardless of application meth-

od Do not apply succeeding coats until the previous coat has cured as recommended by the manu-

facturer If sanding is required to produce a smooth even surface according to manufacturers

written instructions sand between applications

2 Omit primer on metal surfaces that have been shop primed and touchup painted

3 If undercoats stains or other conditions show through final coat of paint apply additional coats

until paint film is of uniform finish color and appearance Give special attention to ensure edges

corners crevices welds and exposed fasteners receive a dry film thickness equivalent to that of

flat surfaces

4 Allow sufficient time between successive coats to permit proper drying Do not recoat surfaces un-

til paint has dried to where it feels firm does not deform or feel sticky under moderate thumb

pressure and where application of another coat of paint does not cause the undercoat to lift or lose

adhesion

the total system for various substrates

302 PREPARATION

A General Remove hardware and hardware accessories plates machined surfaces lighting fixtures and

similar items already installed that are not to be painted If removal is impractical or impossible because

of the size or weight of the item provide surface-applied protection before surface preparation and paint-

ing

1 After completing painting operations in each space or area reinstall items removed using workers

skilled in the trades involved

B Cleaning Before applying paint or other surface treatments clean the substrates of substances that could

impair the bond of the various coatings Remove oil and grease before cleaning

1 Schedule cleaning and painting so dust and other contaminants from the cleaning process will not

fall on wet newly painted surfaces

C Surface Preparation Clean and prepare surfaces to be painted according to manufacturers written instruc-

tions for each particular substrate condition and as specified

1 Provide barrier coats over incompatible primers or remove and reprime

2 Ferrous Metals Clean ungalvanized ferrous-metal surfaces that have not been shop coated re-

move oil grease dirt loose mill scale and other foreign substances Use solvent or mechanical

cleaning methods that comply with the Steel Structures Painting Councils (SSPC) recommenda-

tions

priming

462018

SAR WWTP Substation No 1 Replacement 09900- Page 5 of 8 Painting MWM DesignGroup Inc TBPE Firm MWM-1416

b Touch up bare areas and shop-applied prime coats that have been damaged Wire-brush

clean with solvents recommended by paint manufacturer and touch up with the same pri-

mer as the shop coat

3 Galvanized Surfaces Clean galvanized surfaces with nonpetroleum-based solvents so surface is

free of oil and surface contaminants Remove pretreatment from galvanized sheet metal fabricated

from coil stock by mechanical methods

D Materials Preparation Mix and prepare paint materials according to manufacturers written instructions

1 Maintain containers used in mixing and applying paint in a clean condition free of foreign materi-

als and residue

2 Stir material before application to produce a mixture of uniform density Stir as required during

application Do not stir surface film into material If necessary remove surface film and strain ma-

terial before using

3 Use only thinners approved by paint manufacturer and only within recommended limits

303 APPLICATION

A General Apply paint according to manufacturers written instructions Use applicators and techniques

best suited for substrate and type of material being applied

1 Paint colors surface treatments and finishes are indicated in the schedules

2 Do not paint over dirt rust scale grease moisture scuffed surfaces or conditions detrimental to

formation of a durable paint film

3 Provide finish coats that are compatible with primers used

4 The term exposed surfaces includes areas visible when permanent or built-in fixtures are in

place Extend coatings in these areas as required

5 Paint surfaces behind movable equipment and furniture the same as similar exposed surfaces Be-

fore the final installation of equipment paint surfaces behind permanently fixed equipment or fur-

niture with prime coat only

6 Paint interior surfaces of ducts with a flat nonspecular black paint where visible through registers

or grilles

7 Finish exterior doors on tops bottoms and side edges the same as exterior faces

B Scheduling Painting Apply first coat to surfaces that have been cleaned pretreated or otherwise pre-

pared for painting as soon as practicable after preparation and before subsequent surface deterioration

1 The number of coats and the film thickness required are the same regardless of application meth-

od Do not apply succeeding coats until the previous coat has cured as recommended by the manu-

facturer If sanding is required to produce a smooth even surface according to manufacturers

written instructions sand between applications

2 Omit primer on metal surfaces that have been shop primed and touchup painted

3 If undercoats stains or other conditions show through final coat of paint apply additional coats

until paint film is of uniform finish color and appearance Give special attention to ensure edges

corners crevices welds and exposed fasteners receive a dry film thickness equivalent to that of

flat surfaces

4 Allow sufficient time between successive coats to permit proper drying Do not recoat surfaces un-

til paint has dried to where it feels firm does not deform or feel sticky under moderate thumb

pressure and where application of another coat of paint does not cause the undercoat to lift or lose

adhesion

PART 3 - EXECUTION

301 EXAMINATION

A Examine substrates areas and conditions with the Applicator present under which painting will be per-

formed for compliance with paint application requirements

1 Do not begin to apply paint until unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected and surfaces re-

ceiving paint are thoroughly dry

2 Start of painting will be construed as the Applicators acceptance of surfaces and conditions within

a particular area

B Coordination of Work Review other Sections in which primers are provided to ensure compatibility of

the total system for various substrates

302 PREPARATION

A General Remove hardware and hardware accessories plates machined surfaces lighting fixtures and

similar items already installed that are not to be painted If removal is impractical or impossible because

of the size or weight of the item provide surface-applied protection before surface preparation and paint-

ing

1 After completing painting operations in each space or area reinstall items removed using workers

skilled in the trades involved

B Cleaning Before applying paint or other surface treatments clean the substrates of substances that could

impair the bond of the various coatings Remove oil and grease before cleaning

1 Schedule cleaning and painting so dust and other contaminants from the cleaning process will not

fall on wet newly painted surfaces

C Surface Preparation Clean and prepare surfaces to be painted according to manufacturers written instruc-

tions for each particular substrate condition and as specified

1 Provide barrier coats over incompatible primers or remove and reprime

2 Ferrous Metals Clean ungalvanized ferrous-metal surfaces that have not been shop coated re-

move oil grease dirt loose mill scale and other foreign substances Use solvent or mechanical

cleaning methods that comply with the Steel Structures Painting Councils (SSPC) recommenda-

tions

a Treat bare and sandblasted or pickled clean metal with a metal treatment wash coat before

priming

462018

SAR WWTP Substation No 1 Replacement 09900- Page 5 of 8 Painting MWM DesignGroup Inc TBPE Firm MWM-1416

b Touch up bare areas and shop-applied prime coats that have been damaged Wire-brush

clean with solvents recommended by paint manufacturer and touch up with the same pri-

mer as the shop coat

3 Galvanized Surfaces Clean galvanized surfaces with nonpetroleum-based solvents so surface is

free of oil and surface contaminants Remove pretreatment from galvanized sheet metal fabricated

from coil stock by mechanical methods

D Materials Preparation Mix and prepare paint materials according to manufacturers written instructions

1 Maintain containers used in mixing and applying paint in a clean condition free of foreign materi-

als and residue

2 Stir material before application to produce a mixture of uniform density Stir as required during

application Do not stir surface film into material If necessary remove surface film and strain ma-

terial before using

3 Use only thinners approved by paint manufacturer and only within recommended limits

303 APPLICATION

A General Apply paint according to manufacturers written instructions Use applicators and techniques

best suited for substrate and type of material being applied

1 Paint colors surface treatments and finishes are indicated in the schedules

2 Do not paint over dirt rust scale grease moisture scuffed surfaces or conditions detrimental to

formation of a durable paint film

3 Provide finish coats that are compatible with primers used

4 The term exposed surfaces includes areas visible when permanent or built-in fixtures are in

place Extend coatings in these areas as required

5 Paint surfaces behind movable equipment and furniture the same as similar exposed surfaces Be-

fore the final installation of equipment paint surfaces behind permanently fixed equipment or fur-

niture with prime coat only

6 Paint interior surfaces of ducts with a flat nonspecular black paint where visible through registers

or grilles

7 Finish exterior doors on tops bottoms and side edges the same as exterior faces

B Scheduling Painting Apply first coat to surfaces that have been cleaned pretreated or otherwise pre-

pared for painting as soon as practicable after preparation and before subsequent surface deterioration

1 The number of coats and the film thickness required are the same regardless of application meth-

od Do not apply succeeding coats until the previous coat has cured as recommended by the manu-

facturer If sanding is required to produce a smooth even surface according to manufacturers

written instructions sand between applications

2 Omit primer on metal surfaces that have been shop primed and touchup painted

3 If undercoats stains or other conditions show through final coat of paint apply additional coats

until paint film is of uniform finish color and appearance Give special attention to ensure edges

corners crevices welds and exposed fasteners receive a dry film thickness equivalent to that of

flat surfaces

4 Allow sufficient time between successive coats to permit proper drying Do not recoat surfaces un-

til paint has dried to where it feels firm does not deform or feel sticky under moderate thumb

pressure and where application of another coat of paint does not cause the undercoat to lift or lose

adhesion
