3. Remove protective and strippable coatings on metallic surfaces by a solvent leaving no residue. Apply solvent and wipe dry, using clean white cotton cloths, using fresh cloths for each process. Do not allow solvents to air dry before wiping.

4. Treat areas covered by masking tape (after removal) similarly to above. 5. Etch bond concrete and masonry surfaces with 5% solution of muriatic acid to

remove excess alkalinity, rinse thoroughly with water and dry prior to installation of sealants.

6. Joints and spaces to receive caulking: 1/4" deep and wide minimum, and 1" wide maximum, unless otherwise shown. Where these requirements are not met, obtain written permission from Consultant before proceeding with work.

1. Joints subject to air or water infiltration. 2. Exterior joints between and around grilles, and metal door frames,

expansion and control joints, and all dissimilar materials. 3. All areas noted or obviously required and to protect interior from exterior

water and air infiltration, and to complete air seal of building interior. 4. Caulk at all intersections between different materials (e.g. between

window frames and vinyl, at railing fasteners, at downpipe fasteners, etc.). 5. Always caulk in the pilot hole before inserting a fastener, and caulk

around the fastener after it is inserted. This applies particularly to balcony railings. Caulking should be installed before the finish coat of the stucco is applied. This sequence ensures that the joint surfaces are not contaminated with finish coat before caulking is installed.

3.4 SEALERS

Where liquid sealers are to be applied to concrete or other surfaces, do so only after application of sealant to joints.

3.5 CLEANUP

Remove excess compound promptly as the work progresses and upon completion using cleaners as recommended by the manufacturer.

.1 Prior to commencement of work of this section, thoroughly examine, and test as required, all conditions and surfaces scheduled to be painted and report in writing to the Contractor and Consultant any conditions or surfaces that will adversely affect work of this section.

.2 No painting work shall commence until all such adverse conditions and defects

have been corrected and surfaces and conditions are acceptable to the Consultant. .3 Commencement of work shall not be held to imply acceptance of surfaces except

as qualified herein. Such surfaces as concrete, masonry, structural steel and miscellaneous metal, wood, gypsum board and plaster, shall not be the responsibility of the Painting Subcontractor.

3.2 PREPARATION OF SURFACES

.1 Prepare all surfaces in accordance with MPI Architectural Painting Specification Manual and/or the MPI Maintenance Repainting Manual requirements. Refer to the MPI Manuals in regard to specific requirements for the following: - Environmental Conditions - PH testing - Acid etching



- Rust stain removal - Asphalt surfaces - Vertical and horizontal concrete surfaces - Clay and concrete masonry units - Structural steel and miscellaneous metals - Steel exposed to high heat - Galvanized and zinc coated metal - Aluminum and cooper surfaces - Glue laminated beams and columns - Dimension and dressed lumber - Wood doors - Wood paneling and casework - Wood decks, floors, stairs and steps - Wood shingles and shakes - Stucco, plaster and gypsum board - Acoustical panels and tiles - Canvas and cotton coverings - Bituminous coated surfaces

.2 Protect all adjacent surfaces and areas from painting operations and damage by

drop cloths, shields, masking, templates, or other suitable protective means and make good any damage caused by failure to provide such protection.

.3 Substrate defects shall be made good and sanded ready for painting particularly

after first coat of paint. Finish painting of defective surfaces (e.g. gypsum board) shall indicate acceptance of substrate and any costs of making good defects shall be borne by the painter including re-painting of entire defective surface (no touch-up painting).

.4 Sand, clean, dry, etch, neutralize and/or test all surfaces under adequate

illumination, ventilation and temperature requirements. 3.3 APPLICATION

.1 Do not paint unless substrates are acceptable and/or until all environmental conditions (heating, ventilation, lighting and completion of other subtrade work) are acceptable for applications of products.

.2 Apply paint and decorating material in a workmanlike manner using skilled and

trade qualified applicators as noted under Quality Assurance. .3 Minimum painting standards shall be in accordance with MPI Architectural

Painting Specification Manual and/or the MPI Maintenance Repainting Manual Premium Grade finish requirements.

.4 Paint all surfaces requiring paint or stain finish to minimum MPI Architectural

Painting Specification Manual finish requirements with application methods in



accordance with best trade practices for type and application of materials used. .5 Apply paint and coatings within an appropriate time frame after cleaning when

environmental conditions encourage flash-rusting, contamination or the manufacturer’s paint specifications require earlier applications.

.6 Painting coats specified are intended to cover surfaces satisfactorily when applied

at proper consistency and in accordance with manufacturer’s recommendations. .7 Tint each coat progressively lighter to enable confirmation of number of coats. .8 Apply a minimum of four coats of paint where deep or bright colors are used to

achieve satisfactory results. .9 Sand and dust between each coat to provide an anchor for next coat and to remove

defects visible from a distance up to 1000 mm (39”). .10 Do not apply finishes on surfaces that are not sufficiently dry. Unless

manufacturer’s directions state otherwise, each coat shall be sufficiently dry and hard before a following coat is applied.

.11 Prime coat of stain or vanish finishes may be reduced in accordance with

manufacturer’s directions. .12 Use aggregate coating or a slip resistant additive in paint for stair handrails, treads

and landings in accordance with the requirements of authorities having jurisdiction and where scheduled to be painted.

3.4 EXTERIOR SURFACES

Paint exterior surfaces in accordance with the following MPI Architectural Painting Specification Manual and/or MPI Maintenance Repainting Manual requirements: .1 Exterior Surfaces

battens, smooth fascias, etc. .1 New - EXT 6.3B Alkyd (semi-gloss) .2 Repaint - REX 6.3B Alkyd (semi-gloss)

3.5 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL

.1 All surfaces, preparation and paint applications shall be inspected. .2 Painted surfaces shall be considered to lack uniformity and soundness if any of

the following defects is apparent to the Consultant:

1. Runs, sags, hiding or shadowing by inefficient application methods. 2. Evidence of poor coverage at rivet heads, plate edges, lap joints, crevices,

pockets, corners and re-entrant angles. 3. Damage due to touching before paint is sufficiently dry or any other

contributory cause. 4. Damage due to application of moist surfaces or caused by inadequate

protection from the weather. 5. Damage and/or contamination of paint due to wind blown contaminants

(dust, sand blast materials, salt, spray, etc.). .3 Painted surfaces rejected by the inspector shall be made good at the expense of

the Contractor. Small affected areas may be touched up; large affected areas or areas without sufficient dry film thickness of paint shall be repainted. Runs, sags of damaged paint shall be removed by scraper or by sanding prior to application of paint.

3.6 PROTECTION

.1 Protect all newly painted exterior surfaces from rain and snow, condensation,



contamination, dust, salt spray and freezing temperatures until paint coatings are complete dry. Curing periods shall exceed the manufacturer’s recommended minimum time requirements.

.2 Erect barriers or screen and post signs to warn of or limit direct traffic away or

around work area as required. 3.7 CLEAN-UP

.1 Remove all paint where spilled, splashed, splattered or sprayed as work progresses using means and materials that are not detrimental to affected surfaces.

.2 Keep work area free from an unnecessary accumulation of tools, equipment,

surplus materials and debris. .3 Remove combustible rubbish materials and empty paint cans each day and safely

dispose of same in accordance with requirements of authorities having jurisdiction.
