Paints and Coatings (PAINT)

Paints and Coatings (PAINT) standards are specifications for using certain types of generic coatings on different surfaces.

SSPC-Paint 22, Epoxy Polyamide Paints (Primer,, Intermediate, and Topcoat)

Price: $25.00

SSPC-Paint 23, Latex Primer for Steel Surfaces

This specification covers an air drying, ready-mixed, water-borne primer for blast cleaned steel. It is intended for use as a primer coat of a water-borne coating system consisting of two coats of this primer and one or two coats of a water-borne topcoat.

This primer is suitable for exposures in Environmental Zones 1A (interior, normally dry) and 1B (exterior, normally dry), and is intended for brush, spray, or roller application over steel surfaces prepared in accordance with SSPC-SP 6, Commercial Blast Cleaning. It is suitable as a shop primer, field primer, maintenance primer, or intermediate coat and is to be applied in accordance with SSPC-PA 1, Shop, Field, and Maintenance Painting of Steel. It is not recommended to expose steel to the weather with less than two coats of waterborne coating; therefore, intermediate and topcoats should be applied as soon as possible.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-Paint 24, Latex Semigloss Exterior Topcoat

This specification covers an air drying, ready-mixed, water-borne semigloss latex paint for use on metal surfaces primed with a primer conforming to SSPC-Paint 23, Latex Primer for Steel Surfaces. It is intended for use as a topcoat of a water-borne coating system consisting of two coats of primer and one or two coats of this water-borne topcoat.

This paint is suitable for exposures in Environmental Zones 1A (interior, normally dry) and 1B (exterior, normally dry), and is intended for brush, spray, or roller application over properly primed steel surfaces and is to be applied in accordance with SSPC-PA 1, Shop, Field, and Maintenance Painting of Steel. It is not recommended to expose steel to the weather with less than two coats of waterborne coating; therefore, intermediate and topcoats should be applied as soon as possible.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-Paint 25 BCS, Zinc Oxide, Alkyd, Linseed Oil Primer for Use Over Blast Cleaned Steel (Type I a

This specification covers a French process zinc oxide, raw linseed oil and alkyd primer suitable for use over blast cleaned steel.

This is an alkyd/linseed oil primer containing 30% more alkyd resin than SSPC Paint 25. It is not recommended for hand cleaned steel.

This primer is suitable for exposures in Environmental Zones 1A (interior, normally dry) and 1B (exterior, normally dry), and is intended for brush, roller, or spray application over steel surfaces prepared in accordance with SSPC-SP 6/NACE No. 3, Commercial Blast Cleaning, or SSPC-SP 11, Power Tool Cleaning to Bare Metal, or better. It is suitable as a shop primer, field primer, maintenance primer, or intermediate coat and is to be applied in accordance with SSPC-PA 1, Shop, Field, and Maintenance Painting of Steel. If the primed part of the structure is to be exposed to the weather, it should be topcoated as soon as practical.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-Paint 25, Zinc Oxide, Alkyd, Linseed Oil Primer for Use Over Hand Cleaned Steel

This specification covers a slow drying French process zinc oxide, raw linseed oil and alkyd primer suitable for use over hand-cleaned steel.

This primer is suitable for exposures in Environmental Zones 1A (interior, normally dry) and 1B (exterior, normally dry), and is intended for brush, roller or spray application over steel surfaces prepared in accordance with SSPC-SP 2, Hand Tool Cleaning, or better. Within the limitation stated, it is suitable as a shop primer, field primer, maintenance primer, or intermediate coat, and is to be applied in accordance with SSPC-PA 1, Shop, Field, and Maintenance Painting of Steel. If the primed part of the structure is to be exposed to the weather, it should be topcoated as soon as practical.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-Paint 26, Slow Drying Linseed Oil Black Maintenance Primer (Without Lead and Chromate Pigments

This specification covers a very slow drying black, one-coat, raw linseed oil maintenance primer for steel. It has fair rust inhibitive characteristics, good wetting ability, a drying time of about one week, and good resistance to weathering without field coating.

This primer is suitable for exposures in Environmental Zones 1A (interior, normally dry) and 1B (exterior, normally dry), and is intended for brush and spray application over steel surfaces prepared in accordance with SSPC- SP 2, Hand Tool Cleaning. The performance will be improved by a better degree of surface preparation. It is suitable as a maintenance primer and is to be applied in accordance with SSPC-PA 1, Shop, Field, and Maintenance Painting of Steel. It is not ever used as a shopcoat for steel because of its very long drying time. It is unsuitable for use where the uncured, slippery paint film would be dangerous to workmen when walking or climbing on painted surfaces.

This specification is based on Patent No. 2,858,285 which was assigned to the DuPont Company in 1959.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-Paint 27, Basic Zinc Chromate-Vinyl Butyral Wash Primer

This specification covers a two-component basic zinc chromate-vinyl butyral wash primer for structural steel surfaces prior to painting.

It is intended that this coating be used primarily on clean steel free of rust and scale or on clean galvanized metal cleaned according to SSPC-SP 1, Solvent Cleaning; but it may be used, when specified, on steel with very slight amounts of rust. It is to be applied by brush or spray in accordance with SSPC-PA 1, Shop, Field, and Maintenance Painting of Steel.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-Paint 28, Water-Borne Epoxy Primer for Steel Surfaces

This specification covers an ambient temperature curing, two-component water-borne epoxy coating for steel that is intended for use as a primer of a multicoat water-borne epoxy or other coating system.

Primer coatings are categorized according to performance levels.

Properly topcoated primers meeting this specification are suitable for exposures in Environmental Zones 1A (interior, normally dry), 1B (exterior, normally dry), 2A (frequently wet by fresh water), 2B (frequently wet by salt water) and 3C (chemical exposure, alkaline).

The specified primer is intended for application by brush, spray, or roller over steel surfaces prepared in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. It is suitable as a shop primer, field primer, maintenance primer, or intermediate coat and is to be applied in accordance with SSPC-PA 1, Shop, Field, and Maintenance Painting of Steel. Manufacturer's recommendations should be followed when the primed steel is to be weathered prior to topcoating.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-Paint 29, Zinc Dust Sacrificial Primer, Performance-Based

This specification covers highly pigmented primers that contain zinc dust as the major pigment component (minimum 65% by weight in the dry film) and are defined by their ability to protect ferrous substrates.

The vehicle type may be inorganic (Type I) or organic (Type II).

Each primer type (I and II) is classified according to the level of exterior performance at a severe marine site. Laboratory performance criteria are also included.

This specification does not cover weldable preconstruction primers such as SSPC-Paint 30, Weld-Through Inorganic Zinc Primer.

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 coating is intended for application by spray for use by itself or as a primer in a multi-coat system.

Price: $25.00

SSPC-Paint 30, Weld-Through Inorganic Zinc Primer

This specification covers a group of inorganic zinc primers that can protect carbon steel during the fabrication process, permit welding to specification requirements, and be overcoated.

The major pigment component in this coating is zinc dust and the binder is inorganic.

This specification defines the minimum compositional and laboratory performance requirements for characterizing a group of zinc primers. It is to be used in conjunction with SSPC-PS Guide 22.00, SSPC-PS Guide 12.00, and other SSPC specifications covering surface preparation, application, thickness, inspection, and safety.
