If painting is to be carried out during the rainy days in case of exigency of projects schedule, it shall be carried out with prior permission of Customer. 3.1.5 Irrespective of the method of surface preparation, the first coat of primer must be applied by airless spray / as recommended by the paint manufacturer on dry surface. This should be done immediately and in any case within 4 hours of cleaning of surface. However, at times of unfavourable weather conditions, the Customer shall have the liberty to control the time period, at his sole discretion and/or to insist on re-cleaning, as may be required, before primer application is taken up. In general, during unfavourable weather conditions, blasting and painting shall be avoided as far as practicable. 3.1.6 Surface preparation by Air Blast Cleaning with abrasives. 3.1.7 The surfaces shall be blast cleaned using one of the abrasives like copper slag, Al20 particles at pressure of 7Kg/cm2 at a appropriate distance and angle depending of nozzles size maintaining constant velocity and pressure. The Quality of abrasives shall be free from contaminants and impurities and shall meet the requirements of SSPC AB1 (Abrasive Specification No.1 "Mineral and Slag Abrasives”). Compressed air shall be free from moisture and oil. Nozzles orifice may vary from 3/16” to %". On completion of blasting operation, the blasted surface shall be clean and free from any scale or rust and must show a grey white metallic luster. Primer / first coat of paint shall be applied within 4 hours of surface preparation. Blast cleaning shall not be done outdoors in bad weather without adequate protection or when there is dew on the metal, which is to be cleaned. Surface profile shall be uniform to provide good key to the paint adhesion. 3.1.8 Surface Preparation by Mechanical or Power Tool Cleaning 3.1.9 Power tool cleaning shall be done by mechanical striking tools, chipping hammers, rinding wheels or rotating steel wire brushes. On completion of cleaning, the detached rust mill scale etc. Shall be removed by clean rags and thoroughly dried with compressed air jet before application of paint. 3.2 Coating Procedure and Application 3.2.1 The Paint Containers will be rolled to and fro on a level ground for a couple of times prior to opening. if on opening any sedimentation is observed, the contents will be rejected of further investigation to establish the quality. All paints will be stirred up thoroughly using agitator prior to and during the application. 3.2.2 Primer or first coat of paint will be applied within 4 hours of surface preparation and as per Manufacturer's recommendation. 3.2.3 Irrespective of the method of surface preparation, the first coat of primer / paint will be applied by using the method as specified in Customer specification on dry surface. 3.2.4 Application of paint using air gun will not be carried out under the following conditions. eo" fb naeaeta Oe Zezibe a Beaty oonTATA STANDARD PROCEDURE FOR SURFACE PREPARATION AND PAINTING Proc No.: TPL /QMD/MECHISPROC / 004 Rev No. & Date: 0 & 19.02.2014 a) When the ambient temperature is below 5° C. b) When the ambient temperature is above 40°C. c) During adverse weather condition of rain, fog, dust, storm and when humidity exceeds 85% 3.2.5 Primer / paint will be applied in uniform thickness. 3.2.6 Painting works will be done on daytime only. 3.2.7 The remaining paint in the open container will not be used if signs of polarization are noticed 3.2.8 DFT will be checked using calibrated Elcometer after each coat of primer / paint as per Customer Spec. 3.2.9 Each Coat must be dried for the time recommended by the Paint Manufacturer for application succeeding Coat. 3.3. Drying of coated surfaces 3.3.1 No coat shall be applied until the preceding coat has dried. The material shall be considered dry for re-coating when another coat can be applied without the development of any film irregularities such as lifting or loss of adhesion of undercoats. Drying time of the applied coat should not exceed maximum specified for it as a first coat; if it exceeds the paint material has po: ly deteriorated or mixing is faulty. 3.3.2 No paint shall be force dried under conditions which will cause checking, wrinkling, blistering formation of pores, or detrimentally affect the conditions of the paint. 3.3.3 Paint shall be protected from rain, condensation, contamination, snow and freezing until dry to the fullest extent practicable. 3.4 Repair of damaged paint surface 3.4.1 Where paint has been damaged in handling and in transportation, the repair of damaged coating of pre-erection / fabrication and shop primer shall be done as given in Customer Specification 4.0 Inspection, Tes \g and Acceptance 4.1 _ FQE shall check the surface preparation as per Customer Specification / approved Drawing / FOP by using Testex Tape (or) Roughness Comparator (or) Surface Profile Gauge before applying the Primer. 4.2 _Allthe prepared surfaces shall be inspected and cleared by FQE as per approved FOP before applying the Primer. 4.3 During the painting works, the surface temperature, relative air humidity, air temperature shall be measured and recovered at least 3 times a day. 4.4 Each coat shall be examined for signs of runs, roughness, patches, sags, pinholes etc and if such short comings occur, the coats shalll be repaired and permitted to dry before the next coat is applied.

The paint recommended for spraying by the manufacturer only will be used for spray painting. 5.2 During grit blasting all hose connections will be checked for adequacy of the clamps and for proper tightness. 5.3. Use of thinners will be avoided unless it is necessary for proper application. 5.4 Coated pipes will be handled with bett slings only. 6.0 Documentation Surface Preparation & Painting reports shalll be made by FQE and signature of Customer shall be obtained. prepare aEVIEWeD By revsh ov, approve By “ \ ah Say ? cals s.sh8inalddeina Constructo Services GVRRN Acharya Sr.Engheer-QMD Quality Assurance - QMD Head - MD Page 4 of 4TATA PROJECTS LIMITED ‘SURFACE PI Job Code No. customer Project Rev.
