8. SURFACE PREPARATION
8.1 CLEANING OF THE SURFACES
Oil, grease, wax dirt and other foreign matters shall be removed by cleaning and degreasing of metal
surfaces in accordance with SSPC-SP1 requirements. In order to avoid solvent utilization for safety or
environment reasons, high pressure with appropriate biodegradable detergent can be used (the detergent
MSDS shall be supplied to COMPANY for approval before utilization).
Before and after blasting, all welding seams shall be closely inspected for the presence of welding flux and
spatters, slivers, inclusions, burns, sharp edges, and underlying mill scales. Imperfections shall be
mechanically removed, welding porosity’s and welding pinholes will be corrected and the involved area will
be reblasted to standard. Dress grinding to achieve a 2 mm smooth radius shall round sharp edges and
corners. Flame cut and arc air cut edges / surfaces shall be ground to a smooth clean finish prior to cleaning
and blasting operations.
After blasting, salts contamination shall be checked.
Salt contamination: Test shall be performed immediately prior to coating as follows:
Test site shall be selected to be representative of the surface as a whole.
Perform 1 spot test/day.

2
Salt contamination lower than 20 mg/m for immersion exposures & lower than 30 mg/m2 for above splash
zone structure using BRESLE Method as per ISO 8502-6 & 8502-9 (this test could be performed before or
after surface preparation).If the salt contamination is higher than specified, the salt contamination shall be
removed by high pressure fresh hot water washing (Temperature: 60-80°C, Pressure: 1470 PSI minimum).
If the presence of other contaminants is suspected, chloride estimation using CHLOR*TEST test is allowed.
2
Chloride measurements, performed on a daily basis, shall be lower than 20 mg/m for immersion exposures
& lower than 30 mg/m2 for above splash zone structure using the CHLOR*TEST kit.
Nitrates measurements, performed on a monthly basis or on a spot-check basis according the COMPANY,
shall be lower than 25 mg/m² using the CHLOR*TEST kit.
Sulfates measurements, performed on a monthly basis or on a spot-check basis according the COMPANY,
shall be lower than 10 mg/m² using the CHLOR*TEST kit.
If the salt contamination is higher than specified values, salt contamination shall be removed by high pressure
fresh hot water washing (Temperature: 60-80°C, Pressure: 1470 PSI minimum). The water used may be
modified with CHLOR*RID salt remover or a equivalent product approved by the COMPANY.
No blasting or power tool cleaning shall be carried out if:
- The relative humidity is greater than 85%


- The steel surface temperature is less than 3ºC above the dew point of the surrounding air
(ASTM E337)
8.2 BLAST CLEANING
Abrasive:
Blasting abrasives shall be angular steel grit, copper slag, garnet (sand is forbidden).
Dry, clean, free from contaminants (dust, oil, grease, and foreign matters) and a type and size adequate to
give a surface preparation quality is required.
Alternative abrasives shall be approval by the COMPANY.
Abrasive cleanliness as per SSPC-AB1 & AB2 & AB3.
Surfaces to be coated shall be dust cleaned prior to the application of each coat by blowing the surface with
clean and dry air or by using an industrial vacuum cleaner.
Compressed air shall be free of oil and water, as per ASTM D4285, and pressure suitable for blast cleaning
operations (7 bars or 100 PSI at the nozzle).
Blast cleaning requirement:
-Surface cleanliness: SSPC SP5
Checking shall be carried out after blasting and just before application
-Surface roughness:
For carbon steel (ASTM D4417 Method C): 50-75 microns for System 1/Alternative 1 & 3
50-85 microns for System 1/Alternative 2
For Stainless steel: anchor pattern of 35 to 50µm
8.3 MECHANICAL SURFACE PREPARATION
Where abrasive blast cleaning is recognized as impossible or damageable for the vicinity (equipment: apparatus
which cannot be protected), mechanical (hand and power tool) cleaning may be used by the way of roto peen or
needle guns with the approval of the COMPANY and the PAINT MANUFACTURER.
In this process, dirt, rust, looses mill scale are removed and the metal surface prepared by hand tools and
powered hand tools such as roto peen or needle guns, to achieve SSPC SP11.
On completion the surface should have a pronounced metallic sheen.
8.4 STAINLESS STEEL SURFACE PREPARATION
In the case of stainless steel piping or equipment, all surfaces requiring painting shall be blast cleaned with a
suitable silica safe non-metallic abrasive low in chlorides and heavy metal elements, such as aluminum
oxide, garnet or similar abrasive media.
The surface preparation grade shall be SSPC-SP7. The abrasive particles shall be sized to produce the
surface profile that shall be specified 35 to 50 microns.
Tools used for Stainless steel surface preparation shall be used only on Stainless steel and made of non
contaminant materials.
9. PAINT APPLICATION
Three (3) test coupons (150mm x 150mm) shall be prepared before coating application.


One shall be abrasive blasted and coated to half of the surface and the other half left uncoated by means of a thin layer
of grease.
The other coupons shall be fully painted.
Paint shall be applied strictly in accordance with the PAINTING MANUFACTURER's recommendations and the
requirements of this specification. Particular attention shall be paid to thinning, mixing and curing times between
subsequent coats.
Surfaces shall be painted within 4 hours of blasting. If oxidation has occurred between blasting and application of
primer, the surface should be re-blasted to the specified visual standard.
All areas such as external corners, edges, welds, bolts, nuts and interstices shall receive a "stripe" coat prior to application
of the specified coat. The stripe coat shall be applied by means of an adequate brush. Area such as welds and corners that
have been stripe coated shall have a maximum DFT of 2.5xMFDT
Coating shall not be conducted when:
- The air or steel surface is below 10°C or above 40°C or as specified by the PAINT MANUFACTURER.
- When surface temperatures are not 3°C above the air dew point.
- When the relative humidity of the air is above 85%, or as specified by the PAINT MANUFACTURER.
- Any of these conditions could occur within 4 hours of application.
Prior to applying a succeeding coat, all coatings shall be allowed to dry for at least the minimum time specified by the
PAINTING MANUFACTURER. Special care has to be taken to respect the maximum overcoating time. Applied
thickness, temperature, relative humidity, % of thinner, shall be taken into account.
Prior to applying next coat, previous coat shall be rendered free of dust (dust level: Level 2 maximum as per ISO
8502.3), grease and foreign matters.
During zinc based coatings application, particular attention shall be given to avoid zinc spraying on stainless steel.
