contractor who will notify Departmental Representativeinwriting of defects or problems, prior to commencing repaintingwork, or after surface preparation if unseen substrate damageis discovered.

.2 Where an assessed degree of surface degradation of DSD-1to DSD-3 before preparation of surfaces for repainting isrevealed to be DSD-4 after preparation, repair or replacementof such unforeseen defects discovered are to be corrected, asmutually agreed, before repainting is started.

3.3 PREPARATION .1 Perform preparation and operations for interior painting inaccordance with MPI Maintenance Repainting Manualrequirements except where otherwise specified.

.2 Apply paint materials in accordance with paint manufacturer'swritten application instructions.

.3 Clean and prepare interior surfaces to be repainted inaccordance with MPI Maintenance Repainting Manualrequirements. Refer to MPI Manual in regard to specificrequirements and as follows:.1 Remove dust, dirt, and surface debris by vacuuming,wiping with dry, clean cloths or compressed air..2 Wash surfaces with a biodegradable detergent andbleach where applicable and clean warm water using stiffbristle brush to remove dirt, oil and surface contaminants..3 Rinse scrubbed surfaces with clean water until foreignmatter is flushed from surface..4 Allow surfaces to drain completely and to dry thoroughly.Allow sufficient drying time and test surfaces using anelectronic moisture meter before commencing work..5 Use water-based cleaners in place of organic solventswhere surfaces will be repainted using water based paints..6 Many water-based paints cannot be removed with wateronce dried. Minimize use of kerosene or such organic solventsto clean up water-based paints.
