10.5.2.4. Coating Thickness:

The comb-type gauge shall be use. The surface selected for measurement should be
smooth. The comb is placed in the newly applied wet paint film. The WFT will be
indicated where the tooth has touched the paint.
(DFTx100)/%Volume solid
The dry film thickness (DFT) measured by a properly calibrated film thickness gauge
(ELCOMETER 456 which range from 0 - 1500 microns).

10.5.2.5. Application:

Paint materials shall only be applied by the paint manufacturers recommended method.

Spray guns shall be held perpendicular to the surface being coated at a maximum distance
of 300 mm from the surface and no closer than 200 mm to the surface. Wet film thickness
(comb) gauges shall be used by paint spray gun operatives to ensure an even and adequate
DFT will be achieved.

Material and air pressure on the spray guns shall be regulated to achieve optimum
atomization of the paint with the lowest possible pressures to avoid spray ricochet from
the surface being painted.

Overlapping horizontal passes shall be made for each spray coat to obtain uniform
application. Particular care shall be exercised to ensure that a uniform, complete wet coat
is applied. Semi-dry spraying results in poor flow-out with excessive pinholing and shall
be avoided.

All runs, air bubbles, sags and other imperfections shall be brushed out immediately or
the coating shall be removed and the surface re-sprayed.

Shop primed surfaces contaminated during transport and site storage shall be thoroughly
washed down with fresh clean water and allowed to dry before the application of further
paint coatings.

When paints are applied by brushing, brushes shall be of a style and quality that will
permit proper application of the material. Brushing shall be done so that a smooth coat as
nearly uniform in thickness as possible is obtained. There shall be no deep "detrimental"
brush marks.

Damage to each coat of paint, whether shop or field applied, shall be repaired by
preparing the affected surface, in accordance with the specified and as originally carried
out, cleaning and spot priming before succeeding coats of paint are applied. Surface
preparation shall be carried out by using hand tool until achievement requirements. Paint

manufacturers written advice to be sought prior to the application. No succeeding coat of

paint shall be applied before preceding coat of paint is thoroughly dry.

10.5.3. Inspection

To ensure the quality control and painting inspection requirements are maintained during
painting operations, inspection will be carried out by the paint manufacturer's
representative and representative of sub-contractor in accordance with the requirements of
this procedure.

The blast cleaned surface shall be inspected to ensure that areas are clean, dusty free, dry
and comply with procedure requirements.

Surface profile shall be check with Keane Tator or ISO 85031-1 Surface profile
Comparator. Surface profile Comparator check shall be recorded and recommended photo
shot as port of traceability and documentation.

Individual coats and completed coating shall be visually inspected for appearance. The
coating shall be free from excessive sagging, dry spray, pinholes, blisters and other types
of coating application defects and shall bear no coating damages.

During coating, the wet film thickness shall be spot- checked, thickness of each coat shall
be measured DFT by means of a magnetic type thickness gauge E456
WFT Measurements
The comb-type gauge shall be used. The surface selected for measurement should be
smooth. The comb is placed in the newly applied wet paint film. The WFT will be
indicated where the tooth has touched the paint.
WFT= (DFTx100)/%Volume solid
WFT Measurement

The thickness of each coat shall be determined prior to the application of subsequent coats
in accordance with SSPC PA-2.

Particular attention should be made to corners of painted surface. Where minimum

thickness levels are not reached, the corners will be repainted to achieve the minimum
DFT requirements.

The results of coating thickness shall be recorded on the "Blasting and Painting Inspection
Report" - Appendix I which shall be filled by QAQC team.

The paint manufacturer shall provide a field supervisor during the painting work.
