1 Maintenance Why? When?
Maintenance All coatings gradually deteriorate.
Why? The degree may depend on:
• Initial surface preparation

• The type of coating
• The area where it is used
Well planned maintenance will

preserve both the corrosion
protection and the desired
appearance.
Maintenance Regular inspection reveals early tell

tale signs of deterioration.
When? Repair is simple!

• application of system
• allowance for recoating

Can work be completed before the

area has to be taken into use
again?
Are sufficient quantities of correct

qualities available on board to
complete the task?
Don’t - start a job of a size which cannot be

efficiently done within a fair time
with the resources available.
Plan instead step by step in workable stages.
Protect! Provide protection for electrical or

other sensitive equipment to prevent
damage from cleaning fluids, dust,
grit, paint etc.
Light Adequate light is essential for

safety and for proper cleaning and
painting. Holidays and thin areas
will be avoided.
Rule of thumb:
If you can read newspaper print,

light is adequate.

3 Surface Preparation
Oil and grease Use only solvent cleaning on small

areas (and never on painted
surfaces) and change rags and
Oil and grease must be solvent regularly, so that you only
removed from the surface use clean rags.
with an efficient cleaner
followed by fresh water If the water forms droplets, there is
hosing still oil/grease on the surface.
Repeat the cleaning procedure. The
water must run off in puddles, as
illustrated.
Salts The final cleaning by fresh water

hosing is important for the removal
of salts which will otherwise result
in early breakdown of the coatings
applied.
Abrasive blasting Open nozzle abrasive blast cleaning

is the best method of surface
preparation. However, dusty and
contaminating to adjacent areas.
Recommended use:
Abrasive quality: hard, non-

contaminated. No soft sand!
Abrasive size distribution: 0.2 -1.1

mm for general work.
10-12 mm nozzle, not worn out.

Distance 30 cm and blasting angle
60° - 85° to surface.
Power tools Pneumatic or electrical power tools

should be used.
Compressed air must be free from

oil and water.
Make sure not to polish the surface

with worn out wire brushes.
Wet blasting Wet blasting is often used as it

reduces dust contamination. Handle
as open nozzle abrasive blasting,
but remove sludge before it dries
out. If possible, avoid using
inhibitors.
7
3.1 Surface Preparation
Vacuum blasting Vacuum abrasive blasting is far less

dusty and less likely to contaminate
adjacent areas than open nozzle
abrasive blasting. However, the
method has a low/slow production
rate.
Recommended use:
Abrasive quality: hard non-

contaminated. No soft sand!
Abrasive size distribution:

0.2 - 1.1 mm.
Hydroblasting High pressure water jetting

(hydroblast) produces a high velocity
water jet by forcing pressurized (up
to 30,000 psi) water through a
specially designed small orifice
nozzle.
The method requires fresh water

and specially trained operators, plus
special safety precautions for
operators and surroundings, i.e.
area must be cleared for all other
personnel. The method is very
fatiguing to the operator.

Roughness The types of paint which are

typically used for shipboard
maintenance are not critical in
relation to roughness of the
surface. However, too high
roughness could mean poor paint
coverage over roughness peaks
and pinhead rusting.
Dust removal Dust will nearly always be present

to a certain extent, but too much

the product and the correct
and safe use of it.
Coatings are chemical compositions
and as such there are directions for
their safe handling and use. Read
Materials Safety Data Sheets
(MSDS) where applicable.
Storage/ Ensure that all the coatings are

stored under correct conditions, i.e.
Housekeeping in a shaded store which is dry and
ventilated and with a suitable
temperature.
Establish a store/stock system

where the products are used on a
“first in - first out” basis.
Mixing If the quantity needed is smaller

than the quantity supplied, the
correct mixing ratio is mentioned on
the tin/drum.

this ratio.
Stirring Do not just paddle in the paint!
Use a mechanical stirrer. After

stirring, the material should have a
completely uniform colour with no
lumps or sediments. Always stir for
an extra 30 seconds.
10
4.1 Paint Preparation
Keep stirring Zinc primers have heavy pigments!
Therefore, keep stirring to avoid

setting of the heavy part of the
material.
Thinning Do not thin the paint unless

absolutely necessary. When
thinning, add only the minimum
volume necessary to obtain a good
paint flow and film formation.
Before thinning always check that

the pressure of the spray pump is

Too much thinner causes paint
“running” and/or solvent “boiling”,
i.e. holes in the paint film and too
low paint film thickness.
Insufficient thinning can cause an

“orange peel” effect and, if spray
applied, spray dust on the surface.
In hot climates extra thinner may be
necessary.
Pot-life Two-component paint must be used

within a certain period of time after
mixing of the two parts. The pot-life
depends on the temperature - a
high temperature shortens the pot-
life. Check the pot-life of the product
on the data sheet.
NB Thinning will not prolong the pot-

life. If the pot-life is exceeded, do
not use the paint. The chemical
reaction has already changed its
properties. Discard it!
11
5 Application Environment
Air temperature Too low air temperature will delay

the drying of the paint and it may
begin to slide and form “curtains”.
Too high air temperature will cause

dry spray giving a powdery surface
and a porous film.
The best temperature for painting is

15-30°C/59-86°F.
Steel A high temperature of the steel

surface will result in a too rapid

A low temperature of the steel

surface will delay the drying of
the paint. If a cold item is
brought into a warm workshop,
water (condensation) may form
on the surface. Therefore, wait
until the steel piece is also
warm before starting to paint.
Relative humidity/ Use a psychrometer and a dew point

calculator to calculate the relative
dew point humidity and the dew point.
Compare the dew point with the
temperature of the steel surface.

night/day often causes
condensation.
Ventilation Keep ventilators clean and in

working order. When ventilating
rooms or confined spaces there
should be a slight overpressure to
keep dust from entering the space.
Ventilation does not substitute the

use of an air fed hood/mask or dust
cartridge respirator. Where the latter
is used, replace the cartridge
regularly. Follow prevailing safety
regulations.

Before starting to coat, i.e. when

planning the job, check the data
sheets of all the products to be
used. Find out about the minimum
and maximum recoat intervals and
take them into consideration.

Temperature has a great influence
on the behaviour of the paint, both
during application and drying/curing.
In cold weather, paint gets thicker

7 Safety
Materials safety Material safety equals -
A paint store which is clean, tidy and

orderly.
Tins stored and stocked so that

they do not turn over and leak.
Lids covering tins containing

coatings or solvents.
Watch out for fumes and ventilate if

necessary.
Product data sheets and materials

safety data sheets are to be kept
accessible and available.
Equipment safety Airless spray must always be

earthed as static electricity can
develop within the system and be
the cause of explosion.
All couplings must be of a close fit,

especially on high pressure
equipment.
Replace damaged hoses.
During airless spraying the paint is

under an immense hydraulic
pressure. Release of the pressure
through the spray gun or any leaks
of the equipment is dangerous, and
a stream of paint may easily
penetrate human skin in which
case immediate medical aid is
required.
Personal safety Minimize contact of paint with your

skin.
Cover as much as possible with

sensible working clothes.
Wear gloves and eye protection.
Consider the use of a suitable

barrier cream on exposed skin.
Use air fed hood/mask or respirator

in confined spaces.
Ensure safe access and adequate

lighting.
Tidy up as you proceed - good

housekeeping contributes to safety.
Respect safety regulations.
16
7.1 Safety
Job site safety On site safety can be enhanced by

small measures, such as:
- non-skid/slip coatings on
walking areas
- high visible coatings to

mark danger zones
- tidy and clean surfaces in

general
- immediate removal of
spillage
Fire hazard Never allow

Naked flames - matches - cigarettes
- in the same area where paint is
being applied or stored.
Most paints contain
flammable solvents. Always
Thoroughly ventilate any area where
paint is spilled. Clean up
immediately and dispose of the
cleaning material in a closed metal
container.
And
If fire should occur, do not attempt
to put it out with water - use powder
or carbon dioxide (CO2) fire
extinguishers.

On areas difficult to reach, stripe coating with a brush should always be carried out.
The purpose of this system is to protect steel or other surfaces prepared to clean metal. If the original paint system
is intact, well adhering and compatible with the original system, spot repair will be sufficient from an anticorrosion
point of view. Spot repaired areas will always be visible and for cosmetic reasons the last coat is applied as a full
coat.
Thinner is only to be added if it is necessary for improving the application properties, however, only in small
quantities (see data sheet).
Read the data sheets thoroughly before initiating any paint work.
For each product a Safety Data Sheet is available which contains relevant information on safety and environment.
Two component products must be mixed thoroughly in the correct mixing ratio as stated on the label and in
the data sheet. Leave for approximately 30 minutes before use.
After mixing base and curing agent the paint can only be used within a certain period - Pot Life - as stated in
the data sheet.
At increasing temperatures the pot life as well as the drying and/or curing time will be reduced. A 10°C
increase in temperature will reduce pot life and curing time by 50%.
The recoating interval between the top coat and the two component intermediate coat is stated in the data
sheet. If not, application of the topcoat should take place while the intermediate coat is still tacky.

Product HEMPEL’S THINNERS 08...

Data HEMPEL PAINT is produced and supplied in such a way that thinning is normally not
necessary provided the paint is properly mixed/stirred.
However, if the paint is to be applied in a low film thickness (for instance as a "sealer
coat") or if the paint has become too thick, e.g. in cold weather, the HEMPEL
THINNER(s) indicated on the product data sheet may be added to obtain a consistency
most suitable for application. As a general rule, thinning should be kept at a minimum
as the quality of the paint work will suffer from too liberal thinning. However, if
application is to take place at high temperatures (air and/or steel), thinning may even
beyond the limits mentioned on the data sheets exceptionally be necessary in order to
avoid dry-spray and poor film formation.
HEMPEL’S THINNERS are blended to give the best results with regard to brushability,
spray properties, etc.
In some cases ordinary solvents may substitute. As such products are beyond our
control, we disclaim any responsibility for the results.
In each case the respective product data sheet and - when available - the APPLICATION
INSTRUCTIONS should be consulted. As regards the use of THINNERS for cleaning of
tools, see REMARKS overleaf.

HEMPADUR MASTIC 45880/45881
SURFACE New steel: When used as an intermediate or finishing coat please refer to the data sheet for the
PREPARATION: preceding HEMPADUR primer. When used as a primer please refer to the specification.
Zinc silicate painted or spray-metallized surfaces: Remove oil and grease, etc. with suitable
detergent. Remove salt and other contaminants by (high pressure) fresh water cleaning. Zinc salts
(white rust) must be removed by high pressure hosing combined with rubbing with a stiff nylon
brush if necessary. It is recommended to recoat spray-metallized surfaces as soon as possible to
avoid possible contamination.
Concrete: Remove slip agent and other possible contaminants by emulsion washing followed by
high pressure hosing with fresh water. Remove scum layer and loose matter to a hard, rough and
uniform surface, preferably by abrasive blasting, possibly by other mechanical treatment or acid
etching. Seal surface with suitable sealer, eg HEMPADUR SEALER 05970 (furthermore, please see
Product Data Sheet for 05970).
Repair and maintenance: Remove oil and grease, etc. with suitable detergent. Remove salt and
other contaminants by (high pressure) fresh water cleaning. Clean damaged areas thoroughly by
power tool cleaning to minimum St 2 (spot-repairs) or by abrasive blasting to min. Sa 2, preferably
to Sa 2½. Improved surface preparation will improve the performance of HEMPADUR MASTIC
45880/45881. As an alternative to dry cleaning, water jetting to min. WJ-2 (NACE No. 5/SSPC-SP
12), may be used. A flash-rust degree of maximum FR-2 (Hempel standard) is acceptable before
application. Feather edges to sound and intact paint. Dust off residues.
On pit-corroded surfaces, excessive amounts of salt residues may call for water jetting, wet
abrasive blasting, alternatively dry abrasive blasting, high pressure fresh water hosing, drying, and
finally, dry abrasive blasting again.
APPLICATION Apply only on a dry and clean surface with a temperature above the dew point to avoid
CONDITIONS: condensation. Use only when application and curing can proceed at temperatures above
-10°C/14°F for HEMPADUR MASTIC 45880 and above approx 25°C/77°F for HEMPADUR MASTIC
45881. The temperature of the paint itself should be 15°C/59°F or above, but advantageously
below approximately 30°C/86°F to secure proper application properties. Optimal spraying
properties are obtained at a paint temperature of 18-22°C/64-72°F. In warmer climates, the paint
should be stored in a cool place and the paint temperature should preferably be kept below
30°C/86°F. In confined spaces provide adequate ventilation during application and drying. In cases
where faster drying at very low temperatures is required, HEMPADUR MASTIC 45880 may
advantageously be replaced by HEMPADUR 45143. Please also se separate APPLICATION
INSTRUCTIONS.

4. First aid measures.

Generally
In case of doubt seek medical advice.
At accidents: Contact doctor or hospital - bring the label or this safety data sheet. The doctor may contact
Arbejds- og miljoemedicinsk klinik, Bispebjerg Hospital, telephone 35 31 60 60.
Inhalation
Move the patient into fresh air and keep the patient under surveillance.
If the patient is unconscious and not breathing administer artificial respiration. If the patient is breathing, place
them in the unconscious position and keep warm by wrapping. Send for a doctor or ambulance immediately.
Eyes
Flush immediately with water for at least 10 minutes. Keep the eye wide open. If necessary seek medical
attention.
Skin
Remove contaminated clothing immediately and wash contaminated skin with soap and water. Skin cleanser
may be used. Never use thinner or solvent as these degrease the skin.
In case of burns flush with water until the pain ceases. While flushing remove clothing from the affected area
unless it is burnt into the skin. If hospital treatment is necessary flushing must continue during transfer and until
the hospital staff takes over the treatment.
Swallowing
Do not provoke vomiting. If vomiting occurs keep the patients' head low to prevent vomit from entering the
lungs.
5. Fire fighting measures.

For firefighting use foam, carbon dioxide or chemical powder. Never use a water jet, this may spread the fire.
Fire will evolve dense, black smoke. Combustion products are hazardous and respiratory protection may be
needed.
Cool exposed tanks or containers with water.
6. Accidental release measures.

Remove possible sources of ignition and provide good ventilation. Avoid inhalation of vapours. See item 7 and
8 for handling precautions and personal protection. Collect spillage with a non-combustible absorbent material
eg. granulate, sand or earth and place in disposable waste containers according to national legislation (see item
13).
Spillage must not be flushed into sewers or streams.
Preferably clean with a cleansing agent. Avoid use of solvents. If lakes, streams or the drainage systems have
been contaminated inform the relevant authorities according to national legislation.

7. Handling and storage.

Handling
The vapours may form explosive mixtures with air. Prevent the formation of flammable/explosive mixtures and
avoid high vapour concentrations. The vapours are heavier than air and may spread along the floor.The product
must not be used close to open fires or other possible sources of ignition. Electrical installations must be
protected according to regulations. The product may be electrostatically charged. Always use earthed equipment
when transferring the product from one container to another. It is recommended to use conductive floors and
that personnel use antistatic footwear and clothing. Non-spark producing tools are recommended.

result from this, show asthmatic symptoms with exposure to atmospheric concentrations far below the TLV.
Repeated exposures will lead to permanent damage to the respiratory system.
Exposure to the solvent vapours can cause damage to several organs including liver, kidneys, brain and the
nervous system. Symptoms include loss of memory and concentration, abnormal fatigue, irritability and, in
extreme cases, unconsciousness.
