CAUTION – CONTAMINATION
Co
It is obvious that painting at the detail stage increases the risk of contamination from paint
flakes entering the component. It is the responsibility of the operator to ensure that
necessary precautions are taken to avoid such contamination.
(5) Retrospective Action. Process specification M-DLPS618 has been introduced as the
preferred air drying epoxide paint scheme. Existing drawings specifying older paint
schemes eg M-DLPS603, will not be brought into line unless Manufacturing
Engineering specifically request the appropriate Engineering team to arrange a
drawing amendment. In such cases, the time and expense of the proposed
