Advisory Council

A Primary Mission of the Council is to promote effective means of surface preparation in the maintenance industry using water and water/abrasive blasting techniques.

Checkpoints and final inspections shall be signed off by certified coating inspectors.

The implementing contractor shall maintain a certification program for painters working on the project.

4.3.3 COATING INSPECTOR CERTIFICATION: Documentation shall be maintained verifying that only certified paint inspectors are used for inspecting preservation work.

4.10.5 Accomplish a cleanliness inspection on a daily basis whenever work is in progress.

The inspection shall be made jointly with the SUPERVISOR and the designated representative of the ship’s Commanding Officer.

Heavily rusted or corroded area, damaged metal and holes in the structure or piping shall be documented and provided to ship’s force and Responsible Contracting Authority to determine if further structural evaluation or NDT is warranted and for possible repair before surface preparation.

5.6.2 (Structural and Pre-Surface Conditioning): Verify all surfaces within the scope of the project are IAW paragraphs 5.1 through 5.3.

12.3.2 All tests and inspections noting unsatisfactory conditions shall result in the termination and rescheduling of the checkpoint.

13.1 Mechanically clean each deck drain from point of entry to each terminating point, free of foreign matter that could affect performance or damage system components.

Slight imperfections in the coating system are allowable, as long as they are not below minimum mils, and will not result in premature failure of the coating in the immediate vicinity of the imperfection.

15.1.3 In order to pass the checkpoint, any Appendices required by the certified coating inspector shall be up to date or completed and submitted to QA.

A Primary Mission of the Council is to promote effective means of surface preparation in the maintenance industry using water and water/abrasive blasting techniques.

1.1 Cleaning, Surface Preparation and Painting Requirements for: Ballast Tanks, Collection, Holding and Transfer Tanks, Compensating Fuel Tanks, and High Traffic Interior Decks.

MSDS and manufacturer’s ASTM F 718 sheets, Shipbuilders and Marine Paints and Coating Product / Procedure Data Sheet for coating systems being applied for specified area.

WHEN USING SHERWIN WILLIAMS DURA-PLATE UHS, IN TANKS WHERE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE EXCEEDS 85ºF THE USE OF PLURAL COMPONENT EQUIPMENT (PCE) IS MANDATORY.

NOTE: The working area may need to be broken down into zones to allow the broadcasting of the aggregate and application of the top coat prior to Intermediate Coat loosing it’s tacky state.

7.13.2 Apply an Intermediate Coat of CSF GlassFlake 5487 to achieve 5 mils DFT IAW paragraph 12.

12.1 Check for evidence of Amine Bloom such as discoloration of paint coating or clear oily film.

12.3 CHECKPOINT (Intermediate Coat): Verify intermediate coat is applied IAW Table 631-11-1, IV (Cure/Post Cure).

12.3.1 (Holiday Inspection): Accomplish a visual holiday inspection of intermediate coat.

12.3.2 (Dry Film Thickness): Accomplish dry film thickness measurements IAW Ref.

16.1 CHECKPOINT (Finished Painted Surfaces): Accomplish IAW Table 631-11-1, IV (Cure/Post Cure).

16.1.3 In order to pass the checkpoint, any Appendices required by the certified coating inspector shall be up to date or completed and submitted to QA.

1.1 Cleaning, Surface Preparation and Painting Requirements for Bilges.

NOTE: IMPLEMENTING AUTHORITY WILL DESIGNATE SURFACE PREPARATION METHOD TO USE, METHOD 1 UHP WATER JETTING, OR METHOD 2 POWER TOOL CLEANING.

NOTE: The Responsible Implementing Authority shall have the authority to reject power tool cleaning in any inaccessible area if the surface can be shown to have adequate accessibility for UHP Water Jetting.

NOTE: Flash rusting shall not exceed a degree equal to SSPC-VIS 4 (Visual Reference for Steel Cleaned by Water Jetting) Standard WJ-2L.

If flash rusting occurs, the extent of the flash rust will determine the correct method of managing the flash rust.

NOTE: FOR AREAS PREPARED TO AN SSPC-SP-11, APPLY MIL-PRF-24441 OR EURONAVY K & S COATING SYSTEM.

NOTE: FOR AREAS PREPARED TO AN SSPC-SP-12, APPLY EURONAVY ES 301 COATING SYSTEM.
