PAINT APPLICATION SPECIFICATION NO. 1, 14 стр.
This specification covers procedures for the painting of steel surfaces. The scope of this specification is rather broad, covering both specific as well as general requirements for the application of paint. This specification does not provide detailed descriptions of surface preparation, pretreatments, or selection of primers and finish coats. This specification does provide detailed coverage of the procedures and methods for application after the selection of the coating materials has been made.1. Scope
