6.1 Material Control

 Handle and store PFP material in accordance with the manufacturer’s latest published instructions and
meet the requirement of specification.
 Deliver all the material to the place of application in unopened original containers as provided by PFP
manufacturer.
 Use PFP materials within their expiration date.
 Individual components must have been stored for minimum 12 hours at 25 to 30 °C (77 to 86 °F) before
use.
 Thinners, solvents, and cleaners shall be as manufactured or specified by the PFP material manufacturer.

6.2 Equipment/ Tools

 All the equipment shall be in good conditions.
 Provision and maintenance of equipment and tools including those listed below:
 Air compressors;
 Spraying equipment;
 PFP mixing equipment;
 Power tool cleaning tools;
 Rollers, brushes;
 Trowels
 Masking tape, etc.

6.3 Coated Surface Preparation

 Remove all contamination that can interfere with coating adhesion, and prepare a sound substrate
for the subsequent product.
 The applied primer should be Strongly adhered to the steel substrate .
 The applied primer should be Zinc epoxy - Dry Film Thickness: 50-75 µm (2-3 mils) 、 Max in
overlaps: 100 µm (4 mils)；
 Free from any damage, defects or contamination (including oil, grease, soluble salts and dust).
 Uniform in thickness and within the recommended DFT range
 Reduction of high primer thickness
 Areas of high primer thickness should be reduced to the recommended thickness. using medium
grade sandpaper, grinding or other suitable methods followed by fresh water washing to remove
dust/contaminants. Frequent changes of abrasive paper to be made to avoid polishing the surface.
Abrasive sweep blasting followed by thorough cleaning can also be used

6.4 PFP Application

 Painting shall conform to the paint manufacturer’s recommendations. These shall include: storage,
mixing, thinning, pot life, application method, drying/ curing period, interval between coats.
 Paint mixing
 A small amount of Jotun Thinner No. 29 is added (maximum 5 %) to reduce viscosity for mixing and
spraying.
 Product mixing ratio (by weight)：
Jotachar JF750 Comp A 1 parts；
Jotachar JF750 Comp B 1 parts；
 1 litre of thinner may be used per 20 kg kit of the Jota char product. Add this into Component A and
mix
thoroughly. Add component B into the component A container ，Mix the two components together
until a uniform grey coloured material is obtained；
 Spray application
 Spray application is to be carried out at site, the following shall be taken into account :
- The correct spray tips, air pressures etc., as recommended by the equipment manufacturer shall
be used.
- Each coat shall be applied uniformly and completely over the entire surface re-sprayed.
- Spray application should be performed with the spray gun at right angles to the substrate. Apply
in parallel paths, overlapped at 50 %, with constant speed and distance in order to achieve a
uniform thickness.
 Spray application shall require :
- A compressed air supply having sufficient capacity to meet the work requirement and free from
oil and water contamination.
- The cleaning of lines and pots before addition of new materials.
- Spray overlap of the previous pass by 50%.
- Large surfaces shall be painted with passes in two directions at right angles.
- Rolling the material with a short nap roller slightly dampened with Jotun Thinner No. 7 or No. 17
solvent will remove trowel marks, high points and can also be used to obtain a smooth finish.
Rolling of the first coat should be concentrated inside beam corners, on beam toes and difficult
to spray areas. Rolling should be conducted within 30 minutes of spray application
 Roller application
 Roller application may be used under the following circumstances:

- When areas cannot be properly coated by spraying for reason, such as material or environmental
considerations.
- For the initial coat of paint to corners, edges, crevices, holes, welds or irregular surfaces prior to
spray application.
- Jotachar JF750 is applied manually using a plastering trowel or similar and then smoothed off
- using a short nap roller slightly dampened with Jotun Thinner No. 7 or No. 17. Rolling should be
conducted within 30 minutes of initial application.
 Frequency of measurements.
Structural steelwork:
- On open profile sections a minimum of one reading should be taken every linear meter along the
length of each
Vessels

- On flat plates, vessels, un-stiffened decks and bulkheads, a minimum of two readings should be taken
every one square meter coated side
- In the event of the film thickness not meeting the specified requirements, additional coat of the paint
concerned shall be applied in compliance with the specified requirements.
- For DFT up to and less than 10 mm the minimum allowable dry film thickness is 85 % of the specified
DFT
- For DFT above 10 mm the minimum acceptable thickness is the specified DFT less 1.5 mm
- Where any single thickness reading is found to be less than 85 % or 1.5 mm of the specified DFT, a
further
three readings shall be taken within 200 to 300 mm around the area of the low reading. If one or more
of the
additional readings are less than 85 % or 1.5 mm of the specified DFT, further readings shall be made to
determine the extent of the area of under thickness. In such cases, low thickness areas identified must
be
brought up to the specified dry film thickness before proceeding to the next application stage

6.5 Touch up/ Repair of damaged areas

 The adjacent border area should be checked to confirm integrity of material and adhesion.
 Mark out the area to be repaired. Masking should be done to protect the surrounding area in a square
or rectangular shape.
 Any defective material should be removed using appropriate tools.
 Squaring the repair area is recommended.

 Cut the edges of the repair area at an angle of 90°.

 Areas less than 10 cm² may be prepared by power tool cleaning as prescribed in SSPC SP11 with 50 μm
surface profile. On the clean dry surface apply Jotachar JF750 to specified dft
 Areas larger than 10 cm² but less than 1 m² may be prepared by power tool cleaning as prescribed in
SSPC SP11 with 50 μm surface profile. The affected area should be primed using the approved repair
primer followed by Jotachar JF750 to the specified dft.
 Areas greater than 1 m² may be prepared by blast cleaning the affected area to Sa 2½ (ISO 8501-1) using
abrasive media suitable to achieve a sharp and angular surface profile. The recommended surface profile is
50-75 μm, grade Fine to Medium G; Ry 5 (ISO 8503-1). Power tools should not be used as a primary surface
preparation method for large areas.

6.6 Inspection and Testing

 Visual checks of finished coating surfaces shall be performed during and after completion of painting. No
runs, drips sag, over-spray or rough surfaces are permitted and shall be sanded and repaired as per
requirements.
 Film Thickness Measurement
 All the coating/painting shall be subject to wet/dry film thickness inspection in accordance with per
Specification and designed document.

7 Safety
 The Surface preparation and PFP Application work shall be carried out only after obtaining all safety
precaution. All equipment shall be properly grounded when in use.
 All personnel, painting and PFP Applicator / Operators shall be provided with proper protective gears,
earplugs, coveralls, heavy duty gloves, eye protection etc.
 A ‘stand by’ man shall be present at all times while PFP Application is in progress to warn the operator,
if any hazards arise.
 All personnel engaged in mixing and handling materials etc. shall wear appropriate clothing. The spray
equipment shall not be operated above safe working pressure limit and the trigger safety catch shall
be engaged when spraying is interrupted or completed.
 Storage of material shall be strictly as per safety regulation.
