The document outlines the procedure and methodology for painting works including tools and equipment required, safety measures, quality control processes and work execution steps.

Surface preparation involves cleaning, rubbing down with sandpaper to remove irregularities and projecting fibers, and bringing bare patches in primed metalwork forward with the appropriate primer.

Primers include alkali-resisting primer for plaster/concrete, plaster primer for hardboard, etching with abrasive paper and white spirit for plastic/metal, red lead or zinc chromate primer for steel/iron, and aluminium primer for coated soil pipes.

4.0 SAFETY & ENVIRONMENTAL PROGRAMME
4.1 Safety

All workers shall provide with PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) and shall be worn every time they

are enter the site.

Eye protection should be worn. If accidental eye contamination occurs, wash thoroughly with plenty of

water and seek medical advice.

If the product contacted with skin occurs, it must be removed before curing takes place. Wash out with

an industrial skin cleaner followed by plenty of soap & water.

The Safety Supervisor / Safety Officer shall ensure the workers understand the safety regulations and

explain in detail in particular hazards, where the workers are working and the precaution to be taken their safety.

environment.

The garbage bin shall be provided at the working area and Supervisor shall ensure its must be collected

regularly and disposed-off at the approved dumpsite.

Spillage of component products should be absorbed onto earth, sand or other inert material and

transferred to a suitable vessel. Disposal of such spillages or empty packaging should be in accordance with local
waste disposal authority regulations.

WORK METHOD STATEMENT

6.1 General Instruction

Manufacturers technical information must be provided by supplier such as label analysis, instruction for
handling, storing and applying each material proposed for use in this process.

Manufacturers approved subcontractor shall be engage for the painting works.


6.2 Sample for verification and confirmation

Mock-up of each colour and material to be applied will be prepared for verification and confirmation by
consultant representative. Beside, colour chart indicating list of materials and applications for each coat of each
sample shall be submitted for approval prior to physical works on site.
6.3 Delivery of Paint

Deliver materials to the project site in manufacturers original, unopened packages

and containers

bearing manufacturers name and label. The label or decorated container shall state;
a)

The type of product

b)

The brand name

c)

Code number of paint

d)

The manufacturers batch number

6.4 Storage

Materials delivered are store in tightly covered containers in a well-ventilated area at a minimum ambient
temperature of 45o Fahrenheit (7oc). Maintain containers in clean condition, free of foreign materials and residue.
Keep storage area neat and orderly, remove oily rags and waste daily.

6.5 Executions

Paint shall not be applied in rain, mist or when the relative humidity exceeds 85 percent or to damp or

wet surfaces.
Primer and finish coats

Examine substrates, areas and conditions under which painting will be performed for compliance with
paint application requirements. Paint shall not be applied until unsatisfactory conditions have been
corrected and surfaces receiving paint are thoroughly dry.

Review other section in which primers are provided to ensure compatibility of the total system for
various substrates.

Remove hardware and hardware accessories, plates, machined surfaces, lighting, fixtures and similar
items already installed that are not to be painted. If removal is impractical or impossible because of the
size or weight of the item, surface applied protection shall be provided before surface preparation and
painting. After completing painting operation in each space of area, reinstall items removed using
workers skilled in trades involved.

Cleaning the substrates of substances that could impair the bond of the various coatings. Oil and grease
shall be removed before clearing.

SURFACE PREPARATION OF PLASTERING.ETC.

Cracks and other imperfections are to be pointed or cut and make good.

Determine moisture content of surfaces by performing appropriate test (refer ITP) by the supplier
representative.

SURFACE PREPARATION OF METALWORK.

All dirt and grease is to be removed by wiping or washing.

All rust, scale or loose priming paints are to be removed back to bare metal by wire brushing or chipping as
required.

Surface is to be rubbed down to remove all irregularities.

Bare patches in metalwork delivered primed are to be brought forward with the appropriate primer before
receiving the treatment specified.
SURFACE PREPARATION OF WOODWORK.

All dirt, grease, etc. is to be cleaned.

Surface is to be rubbed down with sand paper to remove all projecting fibres, particular attention being paid to
mouldings. All dust shall be removed

SEALERS AND PRIMERS

All surfaces to be oil painted shall be treated with the appropriate sealer or primer, as follows:

Plastered, rendered, concrete, brick, asbestos cement and similar surfaces: apply one coat of alkaliresisting primer.

Hardboard, fireboard, etc.: apply one coat of plaster primer.

Plastic surfaces: etch with abrasive paper and white spirit.

Steel and iron surface: apply one coat of red lead primer or zinc chromate primer. Edges are to be
primed first and allowed to dry, and then the whole surface primed.

Galvanised or zinc surfaces: either applies one coat of calcium plumbate primer or etch. With
proprietary solution and apply one coat of zinc chromate primer. Etching solution is to keep away
from plaster, and is to be well washed off and the metal dried before priming.

Copper, aluminium and lead surfaces: etch with abrasive paper and white spirit.

Coated soil pipe etc.: apply one coat of aluminium primer.


PRIMING JOINERY.

All joinery to be painted shall be primed before delivery to the site or, in the case of joinery prepared
on site, as soon as possible after preparation. Surfaces subsequently cut or damaged shall be re-primed.

All hidden faces of joinery, including the back of boarding, frames, skirting, architraves, etc. and
bottom edges of doors, shall be primed before fixing. Approved clear wood preservative shall be using
instead, where adjacent faces have polished or natural finish.
PRIMING METALWORK.

All steel and ironwork to be painted, except plumbing pipe work and electrical conduit, shall

be primed before assembly or fixing, including laps, ends for building in, and other concealed parts.
NAILS HEADS IN WALL LININGS.ETC.

Head of nails, or pins in hardboard, fibreboard and similar linings to be distempered or

emulsion painted are to be spotted with one coat of primer and one undercoat of oil paint before the
lining is decorated.
VARNISHING

Woodwork is to be prepared for varnishing as described above, particular attention being paid to
cleanliness of the timber where clear varnish is required. Brushes and containers are to be kept
scrupulously clean. Formation of froth and air-bubbles is to be avoided. Varnish for interior use shall
conform to B.S 256 and for exterior use to B.S 257.
WAX POLISHING

Woodwork is to be prepared for wax polishing as described above, particular attention being paid to
cleanliness of the timber. Polish is to be an approved proprietary wax polish, applied in two coats, each
coat well worked in and polished.

WOOD PRESERVATIVE.

All unexposed timbers are deemed to be treated with approved wood preservative.

MAKING GOOD.

Any cracks or defects appearing in painted surfaces before completion or before the expiration of

the Defects and Liability Period shall be cut out, stooped, primed and painted and in affected woodseal areas they shall be sanded and re-coated and make good to the satisfaction of the Architect. Where
cracks occur in walls they shall be filled with appropriate fillers and shall be repainted as directed by
