3. Clearly visible “Wet paint” signs shall be posted where the paint is applied.
4. Other warning signs, such as “No Smoking”, “Caution”, “No Open Flames”, etc., shall
be posted in all areas where paint is currently being applied. The signs shall also
remain for a sufficient time after the paint application has been completed. The said
signs shall be removed after the paint and any necessary apparatus for the paint
application are taken away from the area.
5. Precautions against static discharge shall be observed. Deposition rates in enclosed
spaces shall be controlled to avoid toxic and explosive fume build up. Local
temperatures shall be monitored. Force draft ventilation shall be considered.
