QA-1: QUALITY ASSURANCE INSPECTION FORM - PRESERVATION CHECKLIST CHECKPOINT 1 ? COATING SYSTEM COMPLIANCE Ensure all coatings are in compliance with COMDTINST M10360.3, Appendix C. CHECKPOINT 2 - PAINT STORAGE Ensure all coatings are kept at a temperature of 65 to 85?F at all times, unless otherwise specified by the coating manufacturer(s). CHECKPOINT 3 - AMBIENT CONDITIONS Ensure surface and surrounding temperatures are each between 50 and 90?F for water-based coatings, and 35 and 95?F for other coatings, unless otherwise specified by the coating manufacturer(s). Ensure maximum relative humidity (RH) is as follows, from surface preparations through final curing of topcoat: 50% for tanks, voids, and vent plenum; and 85% for all other areas, unless otherwise specified by manufacturer(s). Ensure surface temperature is at least 5?F above the dew point, unless otherwise specified by the coating manufacturer(s). CHECKPOINT 4 - PRE-SURFACE PREPARATION Remove surface contaminants (soluble salts, loose rust, mud, and marine growth) with low pressure fresh water wash down (maximum 5,000 psi). If oil and grease are present, perform solvent cleaning, as per SSPC SP-1. CHECKPOINT 5 - SURFACE PREPARATION Verify environmental conditions (see CHECKPOINT 3). Ensure cleanliness of prepared surface is as per specification (i.e.: SSPC SP-12, SP-11, SP-10?). Verify surface anchor profile (1.5-3.5 mils for abrasive-blasted steel surfaces; 1.0 mil (minimum) for power-tool cleaned surfaces; 1.0-1.5 mils for abrasive-blasted aluminum surfaces); and 1.5 ?2.5 for surfaces to be coated w/single coat of inorganic zinc). Measure soluble salt conductivity (5 measurements per 1000 sqft) ? maximum threshold: 70 microsiemens/cm for non-submerged surfaces and 30 microsiemens/cm for submerged surfaces. CHECKPOINT 6 - PRIMER COAT APPLICATION Verify environmental conditions (see CHECKPOINT 3). Verify proper mixing and stand-in (induction) times. Ensure no paint is applied when the temperature is expected to drop to freezing before the paint has dried. Ensure surfaces are completely dry, unless otherwise allowed by the Coating Manufacturer(s). Verify wet film thickness at random, to prevent under or over application. Brush out all runs, sags, drips, and puddles. Perform visual inspection for holidays and other defects. CHECKPOINT 7 ? STRIPE COAT APPLICATION Verify environmental conditions (see CHECKPOINT 3). Ensure overcoating window is as per manufacturer?s instructions. After primer coat (mist coat after inorganic zinc), brush-apply un-thinned coat of same primer paint over edges, weld seams, cut-outs, and areas of complex geometries @ 3-4 mils wet film thickness (WFT). CHECKPOINT 8 ? TOP COAT APPLICATION Verify environmental conditions (see CHECKPOINT 3). Ensure overcoating window is as per manufacturer?s instructions. Verify proper mixing and stand-in (induction) times, as applicable. Verify wet film thickness at random, to prevent under or over application. Brush out all runs, sags, drips, and puddles. CHECKPOINT 9 ? FINAL INSPECTION Verify final system dry film thickness. Verify system cure for service resumption - U/W Body surfaces: 5-8 hours @ 77 degrees F; Potable water tanks: 7 days @ 77 degrees F. Ensure potable water tank exhaust ventilation is maintained continuously from and during coating application through final system cure (minimum 7 days @ 77 degrees F.), to exhaust all solvent to the atmosphere and to prevent solvent entrapment. CHECKPOINT 10 ? RECORD KEEPING Complete, sign, and submit all provided QA Inspection Forms. Signature of Inspector:______________________________________________________ Date:____________ QA-2.
