Visual Inspection on Delivered Materials

Abrasive material: Blasting abrasives shall be placed on a wooden block or other
stock methods in a dry and covered area.
Paint material: Painting materials and coating systems shall be approved by PPC
and LSP.
Storage shall be done in dry, clean and well ventilated areas, and shall be done
under supervision of Paint Manufacturer’s representative
The equipment/tools shall be in good conditions and valid calibration certificate.

6.2. Surface Preparation inspection

Prior to the surface preparation, surface contamination such as oil, grease and
any similar matter shall be removed by degreasing with suitable degreaser or
solvent cleaning in according to SSPC-SP1
Visual inspection for all material to be blasted with free of oil, grease & debris, free
of weld spatter & shape edges, all sharp edges shall be ground to give a radius of
2 mm.
Equipment/compressed air shall be checked frequently by blotter test as per
ASTM D4285.
No blasting operation on steel surfaces shall be done in the following conditions
on the working area:
- Surface temperatures is less than 3 °C above the dew point
- Relative humidity is greater than 85%
- There is a possibility that the blasted surface will be subject to wetting
before the first coat or primer coat can be applied.
To achieve the required anchor profile, abrasive particle size shall follow the
surface preparation commentary of the SSPC, ISO manual as necessary to
comply with SSPC-SP 10/ Sa 2.5.
Inspection and Testing on surface before application paint:
- Check of abrasive types
- Visual imperfections on welds, cut edges, steel surface

- Verify surface cleanliness to be blasted

- Check surface preparation grade and surface profile (SSPC SP10, 30-
80 µm)

6.3. Paint application inspection

The primer coat or first coat of paint shall be applied within 5 hours after of surface
preparation finished before any rusting occurs (if rust forms after cleaning, the
surface shall be re-cleaned before painting).
No painting operation shall be done in the following weather conditions in the

- Rain, snow, fog or mist. Weather is forecasted to become adverse
before the paint has been dried.
- Dust effects adversely due to high wind.
- Ambient temperature is 5 °C or below.
- Relative humidity is 85% or more.
Inspection and Testing on the surface before applying paint:
- Weather conditions
- Check of paint name
- Mixing and Thinning
- Stripe coat (at the corner, weld seam, difficult areas…)
- Apply paint and WFT check relevant for each coat
- DFT and build up DFT (including repair and touch up)
- MEK test (for Inorganic Zinc Silicate primer) before apply 2nd coat
- Visual inspection and handover to next stage

6.4. Final Inspection

Individual coats and completed coating shall be visually inspected for free from
