NOTE: This Guide Specification is used in the preparation of project specifications
for Department of Defense facilities:
1. Buildings;
2. Related mechanical, electrical, and miscellaneous items; and
3. Shore-to-ship utility connections.
This guide specification WAS NOT prepared to address the requirements of routine
maintenance painting although it could be modified to do so.
This guide specification DOES NOT address high-performance or specialty coating
requirements, or protective coating of industrial structures or facilities,
including but not limited to:
1. Towers;
2. Pilings;
3. Pavement markings;
4. Items requiring specialized treatment due to peculiar usage;
5. Petroleum storage facilities;
6. Water storage facilities;
7. Waterfront facilities, except shore-to-ship utility connections; and
8. Hangars
If such items are in the project they should be included in a separate section
or this section should be modified accordingly. The following guide specifications
are examples of those available for specific service conditions noted, and may
be modified to provide for related service conditions:
1. Section 09 97 23 METALLIC TYPE CONDUCTIVE/SPARK RESISTANT CONCRETE FLOOR
FINISH. This specification covers the painting of hydraulic structures located
in fresh water such as locks and dams.
2. Section 09 97 13.15 EPOXY/FLUOROPOLYURETHANE INTERIOR COATING OF WELDED
STEEL PETROLEUM FUEL TANKS
3. Section 09 97 13.27 EXTERIOR COATING OF STEEL STRUCTURES. This specification
is usable for any steel structure exposed to weather, and is usable for other
purposes as well, such as hangar structures, enclosed swimming pool structures,
and most situations requiring high-performance protective coating systems.
4. Section 09 97 13.16 INTERIOR COATING OF WELDED STEEL WATER TANKS
5. Section 09 97 13.15 EPOXY/FLUOROPOLYURETHANE INTERIOR COATING OF WELDED
STEEL PETROLEUM FUEL TANKS. This is a three-coat epoxy system that is adaptable
to a wide range of high-performance protective coating requirements where there
is no exposure to sunlight.
This guide generally contains only two types of coating systems, solvent based
and water based. If different systems are required regionally, or for special
needs, modify the guide accordingly.

NOTE: Review submittal description (SD) definitions in Section 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL
PROCEDURES and edit the following list to reflect only the submittals required
for the project. Submittals should be kept to the minimum required for adequate
quality control.
A “G” following a submittal item indicates that the submittal requires Government
approval. Some submittals are already marked with a “G”. Only delete an existing
“G” if the submittal item is not complex and can be reviewed through the Contractor’s
Quality Control system. Only add a “G” if the submittal is sufficiently important
or complex in context of the project.
For submittals requiring Government approval on Army projects, a code of up
to three characters within the submittal tags may be used following the "G"
designation to indicate the approving authority. Codes for Army projects using
the Resident Management System (RMS) are: "AE" for Architect-Engineer; "DO"
for District Office (Engineering Division or other organization in the District
Office); "AO" for Area Office; "RO" for Resident Office; and "PO" for Project
Office. Codes following the "G" typically are not used for Navy, Air Force,
and NASA projects.
Choose the first bracketed item for Navy, Air Force and NASA projects, or choose
the second bracketed item for Army projects.
Government approval is required for submittals with a "G" designation; submittals not having a "G" designation
are [for Contractor Quality Control approval.][for information only. When used, a designation following the
"G" designation identifies the office that will review the submittal for the Government.] The following shall
be submitted in accordance with Section 01 33 00 SUBMITTAL PROCEDURES:
The current MPI, "Approved Product List" which lists paint by brand, label, product name and product code as
of the date of contract award, will be used to determine compliance with the submittal requirements of this specification.
The Contractor may choose to use a subsequent MPI "Approved Product List", however, only one list may be used
for the entire contract and each coating system is to be from a single manufacturer. All coats on a particular
substrate must be from a single manufacturer. No variation from the MPI Approved Products List is acceptable.
Samples of specified materials may be taken and tested for compliance with specification requirements.
In keeping with the intent of Executive Order 13101, "Greening the Government through Waste Prevention, Recycling,

]
NOTE: For projects in continental US, Hawaii, Alaska, and Puerto Rico, require
SSPC Certification. Use in other locations where qualified US contractor is
desired. If project involves removal of paint containing hazardous materials,
add requirement for SSPC QP-2 certification in section of specification where
the hazardous paint removal is specified, generally UFGS 02 83 13.00 20 or UFGS
02 82 33.13 20.
NOTE: **WARNING**WARNING**WARNING**WARNING** Solicitations requiring SSPC Certification
should point out the existence and location of the certification requirement,
in the Project Information Form. To be enforceable, the requirement must be
pointed out in the solicitation documents. SSPC Certification is a special
responsibility requirement pursuant to FAR 9.104-2. This is analogous to requiring
bidders to have a specified level of experience or expertise and GAO has sustained
these types of special requirements.
NOTE: Use bracket option below concerning SSPC QP 1 only when industrial coatings
are required. Painting qualifications for projects such as BEQ's, training
facilities and general administration buildings do not require QP 1 certification.
[1.3.2 SSPC QP 1 Certification
All contractors and subcontractors that perform surface preparation or coating application shall be certified
by the Society for Protective Coatings (formerly Steel Structures Painting Council) (SSPC) to the requirements
of SSPC QP 1 prior to contract award, and shall remain certified while accomplishing any surface preparation
or coating application. The painting contractors and painting subcontractors must remain so certified for the
duration of the project. If a contractor's or subcontractor's certification expires, the firm will not be allowed
to perform any work until the certification is reissued. Requests for extension of time for any delay to the
completion of the project due to an inactive certification will not be considered and liquidated damages will
apply. Notify the Contracting Officer of any change in contractor certification status.
]1.4 QUALITY ASSURANCE

]3.4 SURFACE PREPARATION
NOTE: Existing coating systems need to be defined compositionally before recoating:
1. Hazardous Materials: When planning either partial or full removal of existing
coatings, regulatory restrictions and procedures shall be followed. Records
establishing the composition of materials in the coating systems, if available,
may assist in a preliminary review of planned surface preparation and disposal.
Generally an overall assessment of applicable regulations for personnel and
environmental protection will be required, with appropriate sampling and testing,
followed by use of proper material control procedures.
2. Compatibility of the existing coating system with a planned repair or overcoating
system should be determined by procedures such as the following:
a. Identification of the existing topcoat and any undercoats that will be exposed,
by consulting local records.
b. If binder extraction is possible, ASTM D 2621, "Infrared Identification
of Vehicle Solids from Solvent-Reducible Paints," can be used for vehicle identification.
c. General compatibility considerations and chart listings of expected relationships
between binder types are given in MPI Evaluation of systems, "Transition Coat
and Architectural Paint Compatibility Chart". Consult coating specialist codes
regarding questionable compatibilities indicated in the chart.
d. For some maintenance operations, use of ASTM D 5064, "Standard Practice
for Conducting a Patch Test to Assess Coating Compatibility," may be warranted.
Interpretation of the results of patch testing is not always straight-forward,
therefore, consult appropriate coating specialists when considering patch testing.
NOTE: Specify nonhazardous cleaning agents when possible.
Remove dirt, splinters, loose particles, grease, oil, [disintegrated coatings,] and other foreign matter and
substances deleterious to coating performance as specified for each substrate before application of paint or
surface treatments. Oil and grease shall be removed prior to mechanical cleaning. Cleaning shall be programmed
so that dust and other contaminants will not fall on wet, newly painted surfaces. Exposed ferrous metals such
as nail heads on or in contact with surfaces to be painted with water-thinned paints, shall be spot-primed with
a suitable corrosion-inhibitive primer capable of preventing flash rusting and compatible with the coating specified
for the adjacent areas.
[3.4.1 Additional Requirements for Preparation of Surfaces With Existing Coatings

Paints, except water-thinned types, shall be applied only to surfaces that are completely free of moisture as
determined by sight or touch.
Thoroughly work coating materials into joints, crevices, and open spaces. Special attention shall be given to
insure that all edges, corners, crevices, welds, and rivets receive a film thickness equal to that of adjacent
painted surfaces.
Each coat of paint shall be applied so dry film shall be of uniform thickness and free from runs, drops, ridges,
waves, pinholes or other voids, laps, brush marks, and variations in color, texture, and finish. Hiding shall
be complete.
Touch up damaged coatings before applying subsequent coats.[ Interior areas shall be broom clean and dust free
before and during the application of coating material.]
[Apply paint to new fire extinguishing sprinkler systems including valves, piping, conduit, hangers, supports,
miscellaneous metal work, and accessories. Shield sprinkler heads with protective coverings while painting is
in progress. Remove sprinkler heads which have been painted and replace with new sprinkler heads. For piping
in unfinished spaces, provide primed surfaces with one coat of red alkyd gloss enamel to a minimum dry film thickness
of 0.025 mm 1.0 mil. Unfinished spaces include attic spaces, spaces above suspended ceilings, crawl spaces,
pipe chases, mechanical equipment room, and space where walls or ceiling are not painted or not constructed of
a prefinished material. For piping in finished areas, provide prime surfaces with two coats of paint to match
adjacent surfaces, except provide valves and operating accessories with one coat of red alkyd gloss enamel.
Upon completion of painting, remove protective covering from sprinkler heads.]
a. Drying Time: Allow time between coats, as recommended by the coating manufacturer, to permit
thorough drying, but not to present topcoat adhesion problems. Provide each coat in specified
condition to receive next coat.
b. Primers, and Intermediate Coats: Do not allow primers or intermediate coats to dry more
than 30 days, or longer than recommended by manufacturer, before applying subsequent coats.
Follow manufacturer's recommendations for surface preparation if primers or intermediate coats
are allowed to dry longer than recommended by manufacturers of subsequent coatings. Each coat

3.14 WASTE MANAGEMENT
NOTE: Take-back programs refer to programs in which the product manufacturer
"takes-back" scrap material and/or packaging associated with its product. Using
a manufacturer's service contributes to the following LEED credit: MR2. Coordinate
with Section 02 42 00 CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION WASTE MANAGEMENT. Army projects
include bracketed text option(s) only if pursuing this credit.
As specified in the Waste Management Plan and as follows. Do not use kerosene or any such organic solvents to
clean up water based paints. Properly dispose of paints or solvents in designated containers. Close and seal
partially used containers of paint to maintain quality as necessary for reuse. Store in protected, well-ventilated,
fire-safe area at moderate temperature. Place materials defined as hazardous or toxic waste in designated containers.
[Coordinate with manufacturer for take-back program. Set aside scrap to be returned to manufacturer for recycling
into new product. When such a service is not available, local recyclers shall be sought after to reclaim the
materials.] [Set aside extra paint for future color matches or reuse by the Government.] [Where local options
exist for leftover paint recycling, collect all waste paint by type and provide for delivery to recycling or
collection facility for reuse by local organizations.]
3.15 PAINT TABLES
NOTE: Coatings chosen must meet the MPI Green Performance(TM) Standard (GPS-1-05),
unless no such products are available for the specified application. An E3
rating is more stringent than an E2 rating, which is more stringent than an
E1 rating. Where indoor air quality (odor) is an issue, use only MPI listed
materials having a minimum [E2] [E3] rating. Include GPS phrase if project is
to achieve LEED credit EQ4. Army projects shall include second bracketed option
if pursuing this credit. Designer must edit Interior Paint Tables to include
only products that are listed in the MPI Green Approved Products List, available at
http://www.specifygreen.com/APL/ProductIdxByMPInum.asp
if pursuing this credit.
All DFT's are minimum values.[ Use only materials [with a GPS green check mark] having a minimum MPI "Environmentally
Friendly" [E1] [E2] [E3] rating based on VOC (EPA Method 24) content levels.][ Use only interior paints and
coatings that meet VOC requirements of LEED low emitting materials credit.] Acceptable products are listed in
the MPI Green Approved Products List, available at http://www.specifygreen.com/APL/ProductIdxByMPInum.asp.
NOTE: Eliminate paint systems and gloss levels from the paint tables below
that are not to be used for this project.
NOTE: As guidance in selection of coating systems in the Paint Tables, VOC
compliant materials may be selected, based on:
1. Regional air quality regulations for the site location,
2. The applicable rule, and
3. Any specialty or exemption category.
Environmentally acceptable coatings may be further ensured by avoiding hazardous
materials and including, as a minimum, requirements in purchase order or bill
of materials to prohibit coatings containing materials listed in paragraph entitled
"Environmental Protection." ACGIH A1 confirmed human carcinogens include asbestos,
benzene, chromates, and coal tar. ACGIH A2 suspected human carcinogens include
cadmium and certain chromates. Specify new galvanized steel, in appropriate
section, to be without hexavalent chromium stain inhibitors.
Where only topcoating for cosmetic purposes is required, a compatible topcoat
that hides substrate should be selected. There are proposed rules limiting
VOC content in states other than California. These rules are for architectural
and industrial maintenance paints and coatings. Check local and State regulations
concerning allowable VOC limits. The most stringent govern.
Water-based paints and acrylic latex paints are lower in VOCs than solvent-based
paints. Water-based paints are generally safer to handle and can be cleaned
up with water, reducing health risks to workers and minimizing or avoiding hazardous
waste.
NOTE: Gloss levels are defined by MPI as follows:
Gloss Description Units Units
Level @ 60 degrees @ 85 degrees
G1 Matte or Flat 0 to 5 10 max
G2 Velvet 0 to 10 10 to 35
G3 Eggshell 10 to 25 10 to 35
G4 Satin 20 to 35 35 min
G5 Semi-Gloss 35 to 70
G6 Gloss 70 to 85
G7 High Gloss
3.15.1 EXTERIOR PAINT TABLES
NOTE: (DIVISION 3: EXTERIOR CONCRETE PAINT TABLE). For applications of high-build
glaze finishes over concrete masonry units requiring block filler that meets
resistance to wind-driven rain or resistance to hydrostatic pressure, specify
filler materials and applications of Section 09 96 59 HIGH-BUILD GLAZE COATINGS.
(Substrates B and C). Except for new cast-in-place concrete walls in Iceland,
use MPI 10, MPI 11, or MPI 119. Use MPI 42, for accent panels, special effect,

Color: Main reason for painting concrete and stucco is to obtain desired color.
Before specifying paint systems, coordinate with other specification sections
to confirm that concrete does not have special waterproof finish or applied,
colored cementitious finish and that stucco does not have color pigment integral
with mix.
Do not use MPI 10, MPI 11, or MPI 119 on new cast-in-place concrete wall surfaces
in Iceland. Specify "steinakryl" which is a solvent-borne acrylic paint applied
to vertical or near vertical cast-in-place concrete walls. The wall top should
be protected by cap or by combination of clear penetrating waterproofing solution
and "steinakryl" called, "Steinvari 2000." These products are acceptable and
available to the Iceland Prime Contractor.

3.15.2 INTERIOR PAINT TABLES
NOTE: Consider latex paint options for occupied buildings and where strong
odors would be objectional. Where allowable, consider eggshell or semigloss
enamel in lieu of flat paint for areas subject to soiling where gloss is not
desired.
For existing surfaces with alkyd enamel coating, do not specify latex paint
which does not bond well to enamel.
(Division 3: Interior Concrete Paint Table).
(Substrate B). For hiding imperfections in new concrete ceilings. Do not specify
in wet or humid areas or for previously painted surfaces.
(Substrate C). List other high humidity areas requiring enamel finishes. For
tile-like finishes, filler materials, and applications, refer to Section 09
96 59 HIGH-BUILD GLAZE COATINGS. These high performance coatings are normally
used to meet exposure-resistant requirements and can be applied to wood, metal,
and concrete substrates.
NOTE: Most products approved by MPI GPS-1-05 are acceptable for LEED credit,
and surpass Green Seal requirements. Using low-VOC interior products contributes
to the following LEED credit: EQ4. Include VOC submittal if pursuing this LEED
credit, and coordinate with Section 01 33 29 LEED(tm) DOCUMENTATION.
