FOR RUSTING AND PAINT PEELING ISSUES


SURFACE PREPARATION
Sand Blasting Parameters:
 Air Pressure: 8-12 bar
 Blasting Media: River Sand (Sieved)
 Inspection: SA2/ SA2.5
 Angle of Impact: 45-degree Approx.
 Paint to be used: Jotun/ Hempel (Equivalent) as per manufacturer’s recommendations.
 Method of painting: Airless spray paint or roller brush application.
1. Pre-blasting preparations
Sharp edges, fillets, corners and welds shall be rounded or smoothed by grinding (Min R =2mm).
Hard surface layers, e.g. resulting from flame cutting, shall be removed by grinding prior to blast
cleaning.
The surfaces shall be free from any foreign matter such as weld flux, residue, slivers, oil, grease,
salt etc. prior to blast cleaning. Any oil and grease contamination shall be removed by solvent or
alkali cleaning prior to blasting operations.
Any major surface defects, particularly surface laminations or scabs detrimental to the protective
coating system, shall be removed by suitable dressing. Where such defects have been revealed
during blast cleaning, and dressing has been performed, the dressed area shall be reblasted to
the specified standard. All welds shall be inspected and if necessary repaired prior to final blast
cleaning of the area.
2. Blast cleaning
Prior to the start of blasting de gasification of the tanks should be completed and approved by
the safety department. Blasting abrasives shall be dry, clean and free from contaminants which
will be detrimental to the performance of the coating.
Size of abrasive particles for blast cleaning shall be such that the prepared surface profile height
(anchor pattern profile) is in accordance with the requirements for the applicable coating system.
The surface profile shall be graded in accordance with ISO 8503.
The cleanliness of the blast cleaned surface shall be as referred to for each coating system, i.e.
Sa 2 or Sa 2.5 in accordance with ISO 8501-1.
3. Final surface condition
The surface to be coated shall be clean, dry, and free from oil/grease and have the specified
roughness and cleanliness until the first coat is applied. Dust, blast abrasives etc. shall be
removed from the surface after blast cleaning such that the particle quantity and particle size do
not exceed rating 2 of ISO 8502-3.
The maximum content of soluble impurities on the blasted surface as sampled using ISO
8502-6 and distilled water, shall not exceed a conductivity corresponding to a NaCl content of 20
mg/m2. Equivalent methods may be used.
4. Surface condition immediately before coating
After the preparation of the surface to an acceptable standard of cleanliness and profile, it is
important that the steelwork is not allowed to deteriorate. Re-rusting can occur very quickly in a
damp environment and unless the steel is maintained in a dry condition coating of the surface
should proceed as soon as possible. Hot pressurized air can be used to treat the surcafe
immediately after blasting is done. Any re-rusting of the surface should be considered as a
contaminant and be removed by re-blasting.

PAINT APPLICATION
1. General
Contrasting colors shall be used for each coat of paint.
The coating manufacturer shall provide a Coating System Data Sheet (CSDS) for each coating
system to be used, containing at least the following information for each product:
• Surface pre-treatment requirements.
• Wet film thickness/dry film thickness (max, min. and specified).
• Maximum and minimum recoating intervals at 5 °C, 10 °C and 23 °C.
• Information on thinners to be used (quantities and type).
• Mixing, handling and application requirements/recommendations.
• Hiding power of top coat for specified colors according to ISO 2814. Contrast ratio shall not be
less than 94% at the specified top coat thickness.
2. Application equipment
The method of application shall be governed by the coating manufacturer's recommendation for
the particular coating being applied.
Roller application of the first primer coat is not acceptable. When paints are applied by brush,
the brush shall be of a style and quality acceptable to the coating manufacturer. Brush application
shall be done so that a smooth coat, as uniform in thickness as possible is obtained.
3. Application
Prior to the application of each coat, a stripe coat shall be applied by brush to all welds, corners,
behind angles, sharp edges of beams etc. and areas not fully reachable by spray in order to obtain
the specified coverage and thickness.
Edges of existing coating shall be feathered towards the substrate prior to over coating.
Each coat shall be applied uniformly over the entire surface. Skips, runs, sags and drips shall be
avoided. Each coat shall be free from pinholes, blisters and holidays. Contamination of painted
surfaces between coats shall be avoided. Any contamination shall be removed.
Painting Sequence:
1. JOTUN Thinner No:17 or its equivalent, after surface conditioning.
2. 2x coats JOTAMASTIC 80 or its equivalent.
3. 2x coats JOTAMSTIC 80 Aluminum Red toned or its equivalent.
4. 2x coats HARDTOP XP, RAL 6001 or its equivalent.
As per manufacturer’s recommendations.

FOR CONCRETE CRACKS ON THE GRADE SLAB


 All cracks observed along the grade slab should be chipped (V-Notch pattern) to their full
extent prior to repair. This chipping should be done up to the sufficient width so as to
allow application of the repair mortar such as Rheomix 141 or equivalent.
 Bonding slurry should be applied to the chipped concrete surfaces prior to repair with the
modified cement mortar. All repairs with admixture should be done in accordance with
manufacturer’s instructions and under the supervision of a qualified engineer.
 Where the cracks come into contact with the reinforcement, the reinforcement should
be checked as to whether there is corrosion to an extent that has compromised its
strength. If so, all corroded surface corrosion may be brushed off with a wire brush prior
to repair. A repair admixture such as Rheomix 141 or equivalent should be used.
Note:
All the welding operations should be done by a qualified/ certified welder (2F/4F/3G/6G SMAW).
All the workers engaged in site must be equipped with basic PPE’s.
Safety Barricade to necessary length and height has to be formed at the work location.
