1.0 Surface Treatment
1.0.1 All surfaces to be painted shall be blasted (40 – 60 microns) in accordance to
Sa.2.5.
1.0.2 Prior to blasting, the sharp edges of the surface to be painted shall be rounded, the
surface shall be washed using mild detergent to remove oil, grease and other
contamination followed by thorough rinsing.

1.1 Painting Process

1.1.1 The painting specification is as detailed below:

Average Layer
Service Generic Type Proposed Brand
Thickness (µ dft)
Under Coat
Epoxy Jotun ≥ 50
(1 coat)
Intermediate
Epoxy Jotun ≥ 100
Coat (1 coat)
Finish Coat
Polyurethane Jotun ≥ 50
(1 coat)
The finishing colour of steel structure is Grey RAL7000 while hand railing is
yellow RAL1021.
1.1.2 The painting materials and surface of the structure shall be inspected before

due to water condensation.
1.2.3 Ensure relative humidity shall be less than 85% before commencement of
blasting work using RH gauge or hygrometer.
1.2.4 Ensure steel surface temperature shall be at least 3°C above dew points using
steel temperature gauge.
1.2.5 Repair action is to be carried out if there is non-conformities being observed or
lack of dry film thickness.
