Only the required thinner and quantity (percentage) recommended by the coating
Manufacturer shall be used.
Coating may be applied by brush, roller, conventional spray or airless spray methods
as approved or specified by the coating Manufacturer.
The use of roller shall be avoided on blast cleaned surfaces or rough welds; roller can
be either used for successive layers or stripe coats.
Brush or rollers used shall be of a suitable size and shape and shall be kept clean by
use of approved solvents. Where rollers are used, the nap shall be of sufficient length
to work the coating well into the surface.
When using conventional spray or airless spray methods, all the equipment shall have

most effective and economical application of the coating without excessive overspray.
The specified coating thickness shall be achieved at all protrusions, corners and
crevices. Edges, borders, bolt heads, etc. may require the application of a stripe coat
by brush to achieve the complete coverage.
All coating materials shall be applied evenly in a normal full coat free from mud
cracking, wrinkling, sagging, curtaining, fish eyes, orange peeling, pinholes, brush and
roller marks and other defects.
Due care shall be exercised whilst spraying to prevent overspray and contamination of

7.6.6. Priming
The priming coat shall be applied as soon as possible after the surface preparation has
been carried out and before any contamination, deterioration or flash rusting of the
cleaned surface. The specified surface preparation is understood to be the one at the
moment of the application.
The primer shall not be applied before any possible post welding heat treatment
(PWHT).
Angles, corners, sharp edges, bolt or rivet heads shall be stripe-coated by brush. This
coat shall be the same product as the primer.
The specified coating shall be applied when the primer coat has properly dried in
accordance with the recoating times indicated in the relevant Technical Datasheet, its
correct application and thickness has been confirmed, and the primer surface has, if
necessary, been cleaned to remove dust/moisture.
When more than one coat is required, the Coating Manufacturer's recommendations on
overcoating time and all application instructions shall be followed. Successive coats
shall have a contrasting colors or tints.
The use of coatings made from different Coating Manufacturers in a same coating
system is not allowed (ref. to para 6.1.).
Wet film thickness shall be checked when each coat is applied to ensure that the full
coating thickness will be achieved in the specified number of coats. Total system dry
film thickness shall also be in accordance with this specification.
A final coat shall be applied in accordance with the undercoat overcoating time
recommended by the Coating Manufacturer.
The final coat shall provide a smooth, even finished coating surface. Where gloss finish
coats are applied, the surface shall be a smooth gloss finish with no breaks in the
surface.
The multi-coat system shall be free of all the defects previously mentioned.
Each coat shall be allowed to dry thoroughly in accordance with the Coating
Manufacturer's instructions for overcoating, before the next coat is applied. Drying and
curing times are highly dependent on local conditions.
Where it is necessary to apply more than one coat of a particular product to obtain a
specified dry film thickness, then the first coat shall be selected sufficiently different in
color, in order to distinguish from the subsequent coats.
When different portions of a primerized structure are to be overcoated with different
treatments (i.e. fireproofed / not fireproofed parts of a steel structures), a different color
of primer shall be selected, for field identification purpose.
All surfaces that will be inaccessible after assembly or installation shall be cleaned and
coated before installation. Such surfaces include underneath of baseplate, skids,
saddles, skirts, but also bored/punched holes in steel members, flange screw holes,
etc.
When painting is carried out before installation, all reasonable steps shall be taken by
the painting SUBCONTRACTOR to reduce to a minimum damage to the coating
system before and during installation.
Metal contact surfaces -i.e. bolted joints in structures- should be coated with one full
layer of the specified primer on both surfaces immediately before bolting up. Fretting
surfaces where friction grip is required shall not be coated.
Coated items shall not be handled or moved until all coatings have been properly dried
or cured as required in the Coating Manufacturer's instructions.
Coated items shall be handled with equipment such as wide belt slings, web belts, and
wide padded skids selected to prevent damage to the coating. Handling equipment
likely to cause damage to the coating shall not be used. Items such as chains, cables,
hooks, tongs, metal bars, and narrow skids shall not be permitted to come in contact
with the coating. Dragging or skidding coated items shall not be permitted.
Coated items shall be loaded, padded, and secured for transport in such a manner that
the coating will not be damaged in transit.
Coated items shall be separated so that the items do not bear against each other and
shall be stacked off the ground using suitable means (e.g. parallel height ridges of
rock-free sand, wooden timbers placed under the uncoated pipe ends) to avoid
damages of the coating.
