FOREWORD
Coatings for structural steel have been called the prin-
cipal means of protecting our principal construction
material-steel-from its principal weakness-corrosion.
This technology has been the subject of an intensive pro-
gram by the Steel Structures Painting Council since 1950.
The purposes of the SSPC are to assess and advance the
technology of surface preparation and coating of industrial
structures by conducting research, developing standards,
and disseminating information: More specifically:
1. To instigate and carry on laboratory and field investiga-
tions of techniques to mitigate corrosion through the use of
protective coatings;
2. To develop standards, specifications, and guides cover-
ing techniques and materials of surface preparation and coat-
ing of structures; and
3. To organize and communicate information intended to fur-
ther improve and make more effective the protection of in-
dustrial structures.
I. THE THIRD EDITION
The first undertaking of the Council was the preparation
of Volume 1 of the Steel Structures Painting Manual. It has
been revised since then to incorporate new information. This
third edition of Volume 1, Good Painting Practice is primari-
ly an editorial revision and update. A complete technical re-
vision of the volume will take several years. In the interim,
several chapters have been added and several have been
revised to reflect changes in the industrial painting industry
since 1982.
One of the most important changes since that time has
been the increased attention health and safety and environ-
mental regulators have focused on the industry. In addition
to their other duties, specifiers and users must now be
familiar with hazardous waste, air pollution control and other
regulations. Worker safety has also become a concern. In
recognition of the increased importance of these issues to
painting concerns, an environmental chapter and a health
and safety chapter have been added to the third edition.
Concern about environmental and health effects has also
led to major changes in the kinds of paint the industry uses.
Lead- and chromate-based paints, once a mainstay of the
industry, are being rejected in favor of less toxic paints. Most
military and federal specifications for lead- and chromate-
based paints have been canceled. SSPC has recently pro-
posed to withdraw its specifications for lead-based paint and
is re-examining specifications for paints containing chromate
pigments. At the same time, paints are being reformulated
to meet air pollution control requirements, and the recent
amendments to the Clean Air Act will accelerate this process.
The tables in this volume have been revised in light of these

new realities. Because the list of specifications in the back
of Volume 2, Systems and Specifications has been enthusias-
tically received, we have added such a list to Volume 1.
Like its predecessors, the third edition is written from the
coating end user’s point of view and not that of the paint tech-
nologist or scientist. Volume 1 should be considered a com-
panion to Volume 2. Volume 1 was intentionally designed
to include some duplication between chapters. This tends
to make each chapter as complete as possible for the indus-
try being covered, to present shades of opinion with regard
to various controversial matters, and to spare the reader the
necessity of large amounts of cross-referencing. When such
cross-referencing is necessary, however, it is expedited by
the detailed Index, Glossary, Table of Contents and Specifi-
cation list. Each chapter attempts to be a balanced presen-
tation in which each author has been given the benefit of the
viewpoints of the outstanding leaders in his particular
specialty, usually representing buyer, supplier, applicator,
manufacturer, contractor, maintenance engineer and
engineer-architect. The focus, of course, has been on coat-
ings for structural steel rather than factory-applied enamels.
II. ABOUT THE SSPC
The SSPC is a professional technical society whose
primary objective remains to improve the technology and
practice of protecting structures through the application of
coatings. Headquarters and laboratories of the SSPC are lo-
cated in Pittsburgh. SSPC membership is open to both in-
dividuals and organizations, but SSPC services are not
restricted to its membership. These services include consen-
sus standards developed by technical committees, to help
industry define and use good painting practice, a wide range
of publications, and annual national conference and specialty
conferences and tutorials offered throughout the year.
SSPC’s laboratory evaluates new materials and application
techniques and develops procedures for coating performance
evaluation and surface characterization. SSPC’s Painting
Contractor Certification Program (PCCP) is a national, pre-
qualification service developed for facility owners who hire
contractors. The PCCP confirms that an industrial painting
contractor has met the standards for quality set forth in
SSPC-QP-1, “Standard Procedure for Evaluating Qualifica-
tions of Painting Contractors: Field Application to Complex
Structures”.
111. ORGANIZATION
The affairs of the Steel Structures Painting Council are
managed by a Board of Governors composed of sixteen (16)
elected members, a non-voting Secretary and Treasurer, and
additional ex-officio members appointed by the President.
The board of Governors annually elects a five-person Execu-
