No painting shall be done when the surfaces may become exposed to rain, fog or
condensation or when it is anticipated that these conditions will prevail during the drying
period, unless suitable enclosures to protect the surfaces are used. Where heat is
necessary, it shall be supplied by the Contractor and shall be of such type that it will
maintain an air and coated surface temperature of 10°C (minimum) during the coating
period and 30°C (maximum) during the cure stage if hot forced air curing is
recommended by the coating manufacturer.
Particular care shall be exercised to prevent the contamination of cleaned and coated
surfaces with salt, acids, alkali, or other corrosive chemicals or reagents prior to
application of prime or succeeding coatings. Such contaminants shall be removed and
the surfaces shall be re-coated. Prepared surfaces shall not be left uncoated overnight,
without specific approval by Fluor.
All brush applied coating materials shall be of proper consistency and well brushed out
to produce a minimum of brush marks. Enamel shall be uniformly flowed on. Edges
shall be clean and sharp. All brushes shall be clean and maintained in good condition.
