Surface Condition and Preparation4.1 SURFACE CONDITION: The surface condition of the
2、previously painted steel substrate should be classied and re-painted in accordance with the applicable section of Table 1.It is recognized that in any maintenance painting project, the structure or equipment to be repainted may have areas where the condition of the old paint work varies. In these ca
3、ses each particular section of the area to be repainted should then be recoated in accordance with the applicable section of Table 1.4.2 SURFACE PREPARATION: The SSPC SurfacePrepa-ration Specications should be followed as in Table 1, or with the mutual agreement of both owner and contractor, another
4、 set of surface preparation criteria may be established.5. Paints5.1 PAINT SYSTEMS: The wash primer (if any), primer, intermediate, and nish coat should be the same as those specied in the original paint system. Alternatively, a paint having the same generic type of vehicle as in the original painti
5、ng may be used. Some other compatible paint system may be used if mutually agreed upon between the owner and contractor.5.2 COMPATIBILITYSPOT TEST: If the composition of the original paint system is unknown, a spot test should be made to determine the compatibility of the new system with the old, an
6、d should include: assuring the adhesion of the present system to the substrate; applying proposed painting system; and observing for adhesion, lifting, bleeding, or other evidence of incompatibility.6. Paint Application6.1 PAINT APPLICATION: Painting should be performed in accordance with Table 1 an
7、d the requirements of SSPC-PA 1, “Shop, Field, and Maintenance Painting of Steel.“6.2 TOUCH-UP PAINTING: After cleaning the previously painted steel surfaces, those areas with bare steel exposed should be spot primed in accordance with the “Field Painting“ Section of SSPC-PA 1.1. Scope1.1 This Guide
8、 covers the steps necessary for the repainting of steel structures previously painted with oil base, alkyd, or other conventional oleoresinous paint systems with the same generic paint system as the existing one.1.2 When special paint systems such as zinc-rich, epoxy, or urethane are involved, spot
9、tests may be necessary and the instructions of the manufacturer should be followed.1.3 The amount of maintenance cleaning and painting is determined by the need for corrosion protection and appearance and should be described in the procurement documents.2. Description2.1 This Guide outlines the comp
10、onents of a complete maintenance repainting system. A standard system consists of surface preparation and repainting according to the guidelines presented in Table 1.3.

20、ber 1, 1982Editorial Revisions November 1, 20046.3 DRY FILM THICKNESS OF PAINT SYSTEM: Not less than the following as measured in accordance with SSPC PA 2, “Measurement of Dry Paint Thickness with Magnetic Gages“the total dry lm thickness at any point should not be less than 5.5 mils (140 micromete
21、rs). This means that areas of cleaned bare steel will require 1.5-2.0 mils (38-51 micrometers) of primer, 1.5-2.0 mils (38-51 micrometers) of intermediate coat, and 1.5-2.0 mils (38-51 micrometers) of nish coat.7. Disclaimer7.1 This guide is designed to describe, review, or analyze new or improved t
22、echnology and does not meet the denition of a standard as dened by SSPC. A guide differs from a stan-dard in that it is not suitable for referencing in aspecication or procurement document.7.2 While every precaution is taken to ensure that all infor-mation furnished in SSPC guides is as accurate, co
23、mplete, and useful as possible, SSPC cannot assume responsibility nor incur any obligation resulting from the use of any materials, coatings, or methods described herein, or of the guide itself.7.3 This guide does not attempt to address problems concerning safety associated with its use. The user of
24、 this guide, as well as the user of all products or practices described herein, is responsible for instituting appropriate health and safety practices and for ensuring compliance with all governmental regulations.8. Notes8.1 INSPECTION AND REPAIR: It is most desirable to maintain paint systems by a
25、scheduled inspection and repair procedure. In this manner, the life of the coating is prolonged through preventive maintenance which includes spot cleaning and spot painting when necessary. Although it is impossible to set down specic rules that should govern the repainting inter-vals or time, Table
26、 1 is a summation of current good practice. Since the deterioration of paint is not uniform over an entire structure, the engineer in charge must use his own discretion in the application of such standard practices.8.2 MAINTENANCE PAINTING: In maintenance painting it is not ordinarily intended that
27、sound, adherent old paint be removed unless it is excessively thick or brittle or is incompatible with the new paint. It is essential, however, that the removal of deteriorated paint be carried back around the edges of the spot or area until an area of completely intact and adherent paint lm, with n
28、o rust or blisters underneath, is attained. Testing should be in accordance with ASTM D 3359. Edges of tightly adhered paint remaining around the area to be recoated must be feathered, so that the repainted surface will have a smooth appearance.8.3 PREFERRED REPAINTING PROCEDURE: The pre-ferred repainting procedure is to spot clean only the deteriorated areas and apply a coat of rust inhibitive primer followed by an intermediate coat to build those areas back to a satisfactory level. Then apply an overall nish coat to the entire structure or repainted area.
