2. General Requirements
1) Paint system selection shall be based on normal operating temperatures. Consult with Coating
Specialist when operating conditions swing outside the normal operating temperature range (ex.
regen temperature excursions, steam out, and low temperature swings).
2) Manufacturer’s instructions and SSPC-PA-1 shall be followed for the application of paints and
protective coatings unless modified by this practice or the Purchaser.
3) Structural components shall be galvanized. Components such as platforms, floor plates and
grating, stair treads, ladders, safety cages, handrail assemblies, instrument supports, instrument
raceways and other small pieces of structures and their bolting shall be hot-dip galvanized per ASTM
A123. Galvanized components received with excessive dross or other artifacts which may pose a
safety hazard or coating performance defect as determined by Owner or Owner Representative shall
be removed at the expense of the galvanizer. Defects such as excessive thickness (20+ mils of zinc)
or other practices which yield poor zinc coating adhesion are rejectable. All structural steel members
will be galvanized to meet low lead standards. Low lead galvanizing is defined as galvanizing
provided via use of a kettle containing "high grade zinc" in accordance with ASTM B6-03. Per Table
1 from ASTM B6 (Zinc Grades), the lead content shall not be greater than 0.03% by weight. Lead
content testing will be done, as a minimum, on a monthly basis by way of a sample from the kettle.
The testing laboratory and procedure will be subject to Owner review and approval. Galvanizing shop
locations and kettle sizes may be found on the internet at
http://www.galvanizeit.org/showContent,128,169.cfm
4) Flange faces (non-machined surfaces), including bolt holes shall be coated.
5) Gasket surfaces and other machined surfaces shall NOT be abrasive blasted or coated unless
approved by Owner’s engineer.
6) Vessel supports (i.e., legs, saddles, the inside and outside surfaces of vessel skirts) provided with
the equipment shall receive the coating system suitable for the maximum operating temperature of
the vessel. If the support is fireproofed, the coating system shall be System 5B.
7) Edges to be welded: Coatings shall terminate 4 inches minimum from edges to be welded.
8) Vessels to be hydrotested: Welds on vessels shall be left uncoated until after hydrotest.
9) [*] Piping to be hydrotested: All welds, shop and field, can be primed and/or coated prior to
hydrotest per ASME B31.3; 345.3.1, unless otherwise specified by Owner’s Engineer.
10) Extend coatings beyond insulation or fireproofing: If a coating is being specified for corrosion
protection under fireproofing (CUF) or insulation (CUI), all appurtenances that will extend beyond
the insulation or fireproofing shall be coated in the same manner as the equipment and/or piping.
11) Thermal Sprayed Aluminum (TSA) :
• shall be used for protection of existing CS piping/equipment under thermal insulation &
operating < 350°F, except for Category D Fluid Service as defined by ASME B31.3. Deviation
from this specification must be approved by Owner’s Engineer and also requires an approved
MOC.
• is not an acceptable coating choice for under concrete fireproofing.
• should be considered the coating of first choice, especially for carbon steel equipment
and piping subject to atmospheric corrosion or corrosion under insulation(CUI). Use of a
different system may be used where the application of System “3” is deemed not practical.
Consult Site Coating Specialist for proper choice.
• is recommended on bare carbon steel or low chrome piping and equipment in sweating
service or located in a frequent water drift area (i.e., within 100 ft. of a cooling tower in the
prevailing wind direction).
• shall only be used in areas with a PH range of 4 to 9.
• Thermal spray aluminum wire shall meet the requirements of AWS C2.25 or ISO 209-1, Type
A1 99.5, W-Al-1100. The manufacturer or supplier shall provide a certificate of conformance
for each batch supplied.
• shall not be used on underground piping or as a coating under concrete.
• In lieu of TSA and conventional coatings for piping 2” NPS and less, use stainless steel or
other alloy as approved by Owners Fixed Equipment Engineer.
• TSA Safety – Owner’s approval is required prior to specifying TSA on Methyl Chloride
containing equipment or piping. Methyl Chloride exposure to TSA under anaerobic
conditions (e.g. leaks under metal jacketing) can lead to explosive alkyl corrosion
product.
• For detailed TSA specification refer to GII 945.
3. Materials
1) Abrasive media shall be selected to yield the anchor profile required by the manufacturer of the
coating and shall contain no more than 1.0 wt. % crystalline silica as determined by SSPC-AB-1.
2) No lead/heavy metals: All coatings and abrasives shall contain not more than 0.01 wt.% lead,
chromium, or other heavy metals. Zinc is not considered a heavy metal per this practice. Zinc dust
used in Zinc-containing coatings must conform to ASTM D520, Type II.
3) Single manufacturer. Coating materials from only one manufacturer shall be utilized on any one
piece of equipment or piping system. Deviations from this requirement must be presented in writing
to the Site Coatings Specialist for approval.
4) Cold weather catalysts: Coating application Contractor shall be responsible for the selection of
coating products and the appropriate catalyzing agent that will allow adequate cure during cold
weather applications. Weather temperatures averaging below 60°F (including nighttime temperatures)
typically cause curing problems or delays.
5) Contrasting coats: Successive coats of a paint system shall be of contrasting color. Color of prime
coat shall not be red, rust, or red oxide.
6) Plant Color Schemes for BRCP, BRRF, BRPP, and BRFP: See Table 2
2) Shielding: Shielding must be provided to protect the following from grit, drifting dust, and paint:
(Contact Owner’s Representative if shielding will prevent accessibility by Process operating
personnel.)
a) Nameplates, informational markings and
signs (Unless the Owner’s
Representative requests removal
followed by replacement.).
b) Packing glands and packing seals.
c) Bearings.

i) Vents.
j) Exposed linkages.
k) Valve stems
l) Light bulbs and their enclosures and
reflectors.
m) Air intakes.
n) Rubber and plastic parts.
o) Turbine tripping mechanism.
12) Touchup materials: Coating materials for touchup shall be the same as the original coating system unless the
manufacturer of the inorganic zinc does not allow self-recoat. In this case, use Table 1 System 2 as the primer
up to 250°F. Repair of galvanizing shall be in accordance with Table 1 System 5A.
13) Touchup surface prep and application: Surface preparation for touchup areas shall achieve the original SSPC
surface preparation designation as specified for the original coating system. Surface shall be solvent cleaned
with rags or detergent washed and rinsed. Rags must be clean and changed frequently. If blasting of small areas
is not feasible, use mechanical cleaning tools (e.g. 3M Scotchbrite Clean-N-Strip and MBX Bristle Blaster) to
achieve SP-11 and a minimum 1.0 mil anchor profile. Wire wheel buffing does not provide the necessary anchor
profile for coating adhesion, and is not allowed. Feather the edges of the existing coating and solvent wipe.

The following document serves as a guideline for the application of TSA versus conventional coatings and recoat
versus replace equipment for equipment subject to CUI. Deviation from these guidelines to use conventional
coating instead of TSA for CUI piping requires an approved MOC.
TABLE 1
Coating Recommendation for Carbon Steel Equipment Subject to CUI
1
The operating temperature range for CUI is 10°F to 350°F.
2
Shop applied TSA includes the use of laydown yards/areas.

External Paint and Protective Coatings Specification:
TABLE 2
Replace/Re-coat Recommendation
The following table serves as a guideline to assist project and mechanical planners in determining when to replace
versus recoat4 existing piping and vessels. It is based on the recognition that shop applied coatings on new
equipment can, in certain situations, offset the cost of coating existing equipment in place. Many variables such as
new equipment cost, equipment location/elevation, accessibility, congestion with other work activities and the
available time to complete the work should be considered in the final replace/re-coat recommendation.
4
The field application of TSA can be achieved by either the flame spray or arc spray methods. In general, the arc spray method
is more cost effective for large diameter or flat surfaces with significant square footage to coat. Flame spray is better suited for
smaller diameter equipment or where smaller square footage needs to be coated.
5
Need to confirm pipe size break point from actual cost estimates.
