Painting Systems (PS) and Coating Systems (CS)

These documents cover SSPC Painting Systems (PS) and Coating Systems (CS) documents, of which there are three types: complete painting systems, painting system guides, and performance-based painting system material specifications. PS and CS documents were developed only for steel surfaces, not for wood or concrete.

SSPC-PS Guide 8.00, Guide to Topcoating Zinc-Rich Primers

This guide covers the selection and application (including surface preparation) of topcoats to surfaces coated with a zinc-rich primer. Both organic and inorganic zinc-rich primers are included.

The guide does not cover the selection and application of the zinc-rich primer.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-PS 9.01, Cold-Applied Asphalt Mastic Painting System with Extra-Thick Film

This specification covers a cold-applied asphalt mastic painting system for above-ground steel structures.

This system is suitable for use on parts or structures exposed in Environmental Zones 2A (frequently wet by fresh water), 2B (frequently wet by salt water), 3B (chemical, neutral), and 3C (chemical, alkaline). It should not be used in contact with oils, solvents, or other reagents which tend to soften or attack the coating.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-PS 10.01, Hot-Applied Coal Tar Enamel Painting System

This specification covers a hot-applied coal tar painting system for underground and underwater steel structures, consisting of a primer and two hot-applied coats.

This system is suitable for use on parts or structures exposed in Environmental Zones 2C (fresh water immersion), 3B (chemical, neutral), and 3C (chemical, alkaline). It has good abrasion resistance. It is also suitable for underground use. It must be used with discretion for immersion in corrosive chemicals since the coating is dissolved by some organic solvents and attacked by oxidizing solutions.

The coal tar enamel must be topcoated with coal tar emulsion when exposed to sunlight to prevent checking and alligatoring.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-PS 10.02, Cold-Applied Coal Tar Mastic Painting System

This specification covers a cold-applied coal tar painting system for underground and underwater steel structures, consisting of two cold-applied coats.

This system is suitable for use on parts or structures exposed in Environmental Zones 2C (fresh water immersion), 3B (chemical, neutral), and 3C (chemical, alkaline). It has fairly good abrasion resistance and is suitable for underground use. It must be used with discretion for immersion in corrosive chemicals since the coating is dissolved by some organic solvents and attacked by oxidizing solutions.

The coal tar mastic must be topcoated with coal tar emulsion when exposed to sunlight to prevent checking and alligatoring.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-PS 11.01, Black (or Dark Red) Coal Tar Epoxy Polyamide Painting System

This specification covers a complete coal tar epoxy polyamide black (or dark red) painting system for the protection of steel surfaces that will be exposed to severely corrosive conditions.

This system is suitable for use on parts or structures exposed in Environmental Zones 2A (frequently wet by fresh water), 2B (frequently wet by salt water), 2C (fresh water immersion), 2D (salt water immersion), 3A (chemical, acidic), 3B (chemical, neutral), and 3C (chemical, alkaline). Its resistance to chemical fumes, mists, and splashings is generally considered to be good, but its suitability for prolonged immersion in specific chemicals should be confirmed by trial tests in the absence of applicable case histories. It is also suitable for underground exposure and as a protective coating for sound concrete surfaces in marine and some chemical environments.

SSPC PS Guide 12.00 Guide to Zinc-Rich Coating Systems

This guide provides general information on the description, selection, and application of zinc-rich coatings and the selection of topcoats.

Zinc-rich primers as referenced in this guide are broadly defined as primers containing high levels of zinc, such as SSPC-Paint 20 or SSPC-Paint 29.

Zinc-rich coatings are classified as follows:

# Type IA Inorganic _ post-cured, water-borne, alkali-silicates
# Type IB Inorganic _ self-cured, water-borne, alkali-silicates
# Type IC Inorganic _ self-cured, solvent-borne, alkyl-silicates
# Type IIA Organic _ thermoplastic binders
# Type IIB Organic _ thermoset binders

Zinc-rich coatings, both topcoated and untopcoated, have been used successfully in a wide variety of environmental zones. A detailed breakdown of applicability of various types of zinc-rich coatings in different environmental zones is provided.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-PS 12.01, One Coat Zinc-Rich Painting System

This specification covers a one-coat zinc-rich painting system to be used on carbon steel in mild to moderately severe environments and corrosive marine atmospheric environments.

Zinc-rich coatings, both topcoated and untopcoated, have been used successfully in a wide variety of environmental zones. For a detailed breakdown of applicability of various types of zinc-rich coatings in different environmental zones, refer to SSPC-PS Guide 12.00. Consult the coating manufacturer for specific exposure recommendations.

This specification does not pertain to weldable prefabrication zinc-rich primers, which are typically applied at thicknesses less than 25 micrometers (1 mil). Further information regarding these and other zinc-rich primers can be found in SSPC-PS Guide 12.00.

SSPC-PS13.01 Epoxy Polyamide Painting System

This specification outlines a three-coat epoxy polyamide painting system for the protection of steel surfaces subject to industrial exposure, marine environments, and areas subject to chemical exposure such as acid and alkali.

This system, when properly applied and cured, is capable of giving excellent protection to steel surfaces in Environmental Zones 2A (frequently wet by fresh water), 2B (frequently wet by salt water), 3A (chemical, acidic), 3B (chemical, neutral), and 3C (chemical, alkaline), but not in potable water tanks. Although the coating herein specified has exhibited good chemical protection, its resistance against specific chemicals should, in the absence of applicable case histories, be appropriately tested.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-PS14.01, Steel Joist Shop Painting System

This specification covers a one-coat shop joist primer that will provide temporary protection to the steel joists during delivery and erection.

This system is intended as a one-coat shop paint for open web and long span steel joists that may be either enclosed or exposed in the interiors of buildings (Environmental Zone 1A, interior, normally dry) where the temperature rarely falls below the dew point, where the humidity rarely exceeds 85 percent, and where corrosion protection is not necessary.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-PS Guide 15.00, Guide for Selecting Chlorinated Rubber Painting Systems

These specifications cover chlorinated rubber painting systems for blast cleaned or pickled steel. These coatings are not recommended for areas exposed to strong organic solvents, oxidizing acids, or the areas where the surface temperature exceeds 74—C (165—F). Straight chain unsaturated acids, and fats and oils of animal or vegetable origin will cause softening and swelling of these coatings.

These systems are suitable for use on parts or structures exposed in Environmental Zones 1A (interior, normally dry), 1B (exterior, normally dry), 2A (frequently wet by fresh water), 2B (frequently wet by salt water), 2C (fresh water immersion), 2D (salt water immersion), 3A (chemical, acid), 3B (chemical, neutral), and 3C (chemical, alkaline).

Chlorinated rubber paints are single-package systems that dry by solvent evaporation and have low permeability to water vapor and oxygen. After drying, they are nonflammable and resistant to mildew growth.

The color of the finish must be specified.
