Remove plates, machined surfaces, and similar items already in place that are not to be painted. If removal is impractical or impossible because of size or weight of item, provide surface-applied protection before surface preparation and painting. 1. After completing painting operations, use workers skilled in the trades involved to reinstall items that were removed. Remove surface-applied protection if any. 2. Do not paint over labels of independent testing agencies or equipment name, identification, performance rating, or nomenclature plates. C. Clean substrates of substances that could impair bond of paints, including dirt, oil, grease, and incompatible paints and encapsulants. 1. Remove incompatible primers and re-prime substrate with compatible primers as required to produce paint systems indicated. D. Concrete Substrates: Remove release agents, curing compounds, efflorescence, and chalk. Do not paint surfaces if moisture content or alkalinity of surfaces to be painted exceeds that permitted in manufacturer's written instructions. E. Concrete Masonry Substrates: Remove efflorescence and chalk. Do not paint surfaces if moisture content or alkalinity of surfaces to be painted exceeds that permitted in manufacturer's written instructions. Remove all loose mortar and foreign material. Surface must be free of laitance, concrete dust, dirt, form release agents, moisture curing membranes, loose cement, and hardeners. Concrete and mortar must be cured at least 30 days at 75 F. The ph of the surface should be between 6 and 9, unless the products to be used are designed to be used in high or low ph environments, such as Loxon.

Clean using methods recommended in writing by paint manufacturer. G. Galvanized-Metal Substrates: Remove grease and oil residue from galvanized sheet metal fabricated from coil stock by mechanical methods to produce clean, lightly etched surfaces that promote adhesion of subsequently applied paints. H. Gypsum Board Surfaces: Fill minor defects with filler compound. Spot prime defects after repair. PAINTING 099100-6
I. Wood Substrates: 1. Scrape and clean seasoned knots, and apply coat of recommended knot sealer before applying primer coat. 2. Sand surfaces that will be exposed to view, and dust off. 3. Prime edges, ends, faces, undersides, and backsides of wood. 4. After primer coat is dry, fill holes and imperfections in the finish surfaces with putty or plastic wood filler. Sand smooth when dried. J. Mix painting materials in accordance with manufacturer s instructions. Stir materials before application to produce mixture of uniform density, and stir as required during application. Do not stir surface film into material, strain material before using if necessary.. 3.3 APPLICATION A. Apply paints according to manufacturer's written instructions. 1. Use applicators and techniques suited for paint and substrate indicated. 2. Paint surfaces behind movable items same as similar exposed surfaces. Before final installation, paint surfaces behind permanently fixed items with prime coat only. 3. Do not apply finishes to surfaces that are not dry. B. Tint each undercoat a lighter shade to facilitate identification of each coat if multiple coats of same material are to be applied. Tint undercoats to match color of topcoat, but provide sufficient difference in shade of undercoats to distinguish each separate coat. C. If undercoats or other conditions show through topcoat, apply additional coats until cured film has a uniform paint finish, color, and appearance. D. Apply paints to produce surface films without cloudiness, spotting, holidays, laps, brush marks, roller tracking, runs, sags, ropiness, or other surface imperfections. Cut in sharp lines and color breaks. E. Allow applied coat to dry before next coat is applied. Vacuum clean surfaces free of loose particles. Use tack cloth just prior to applying next coat. F. Wood and Metal: 1. Sand wood and metal lightly between coats to achieve required finish. 2. Prime concealed surfaces of interior woodwork with primer paint. G. Doors: Finish all edges, including top and bottom or wood and metal doors same as faces. Fill edges, holes and voids prior to painting. H. Reinstall electrical cover plates, hardware, light fixture trim, escutcheons, and fittings removed prior to finishing. 3.4 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL A. Owner reserves the right to invoke test procedure at any time and as often as Owner deems necessary during the period when paint is being applied: 1. Owner may direct Contractor to stop painting if test results show material being used does not comply with specified requirements. Contractor shall remove noncomplying paint from Project site, pay for testing, and repaint surfaces previously coated with the noncomplying paint. PAINTING 099100-7
3.5 CLEANING AND PROTECTION A. At end of each workday, collect rubbish, empty cans, rags, and other discarded materials which may constitute a fire hazard and remove from Project site. B. Protection: Protect work of other trades against damage from paint application. Correct damage to work of other trades by cleaning, repairing, replacing, and refinishing, as approved by Architect, and leave in an undamaged condition. 1. Clean glass and paint-spattered surfaces immediately by washing, scraping or other proper methods. Do not scratch or damage adjacent finished surfaces. 2. Do not paint fire sprinkler heads, heat detectors, or smoke detectors. If painted by Applicator, remove and replace with new items at no additional cost. 3. Provide Wet Paint signs to protect new painted finishes. 4. Remove temporary protective wrappings, provided by others for protection of their work, after completion of painting operations. 5.
