3.16.2 SE Surface Preparation Categories. SE surface<br />
preparation for painting operations fall into four general categories:<br />
a. Paint removal (removal of old coating system).<br />
b. Cleaning.<br />
c. Corrosion removal and prepaint treatment.<br />
d. Prime and topcoat.<br />
3.16.3 Organic Zinc-Rich Primer.<br />
NOTE<br />
For specific information not covered in this technical<br />
order consult <strong>TO</strong> 1-1-691 and <strong>TO</strong> 1-1-8 regarding<br />
more specific instructions on depainting, corrosion<br />
treatment, prepaint treatments and coating application<br />
procedures.<br />
For abrasive blasted ferrous alloys the preferred finish system<br />
consists of a organic zinc-rich primer and a chrome and lead<br />
free, low VOC, MIL-DTL-53030, intermediate primer over<br />
the organic, zinc-rich primer and a polyurethane MIL-PRF-<br />
85285, Type I topcoat. The following information is designed<br />
to assist in the application of the zinc-rich primer and polyurethane<br />
topcoat.<br />
3.16.3.1 The MIL-PRF-26915 will be stock listed and a<br />
QPL/QPD is being established. Until such time that a QPL/<br />
QPD is available, one of the organic zinc-rich primers in Paragraph<br />
3.16.3.2 is authorized. Refer to Table A-1 for NSN<br />
information. If the zinc-rich primer sprayed surface exhibits<br />
roughness, the application of the intermediate primer, MIL-P-<br />
53030 shall be used as a intermediate coat to provide additional<br />
corrosion protection, an improve topcoat appearance,<br />
and prevent minute zinc oxide spotting normally associated<br />
with zinc-rich primers. If the intermediate primer is required,<br />
utilize the 3-part coating system identified in Table 3-1, coating<br />
system 5.<br />
3.16.3.2 Approved alternates until the QPL/QPD for MIL-<br />
PRF-26915 is published:<br />
