7.11.2 Springs<br />
Handling hot items presents a serious burn potential.<br />
Heat resistant gloves will be worn.<br />
MIL-PRF-85285, COATING POLYURETHANE, HIGH<br />
SOLIDS 50<br />
NOTE<br />
It is considered advisable to replace all springs having<br />
any corrosion which can not be removed readily<br />
by rubbing with a cloth.<br />
Springs which have been stripped and/or re-plated shall be<br />
baked at 375 °F ±25 ºF (191 °C ±14 ºC) for 23 hours minimum<br />
within 4 hours after removal of the spring from a stripping<br />
or plating process to prevent any hydrogen embrittlement<br />
caused by exposure to acids used in stripping, pickling, and/or<br />
any other plating processes. Springs shall not be flexed prior<br />
to baking.<br />
7.11.3 Wood.<br />
a. Examine wooden cases to determine extent of damage,<br />
due to cracking or flaking of painted wood.<br />
b. Replacement of sections which will affect a repair may<br />
be made and new wood sanded and sealed with a clear<br />
wood preservative.<br />
c. Required gluing shall be accomplished prior to sealing<br />
operation if practicable, if not, area to be glued and shall<br />
be masked.<br />

INHIBIT- ING, LEAD AND CHROMATE FREE 34<br />
MIL-P-53030, PRIMER, EPOXY, WATER REDUCIBLE,<br />
LEAD, CHROME FREE 35<br />
d. Prime the surface with one coat of or MIL-DTL-53022<br />
or MIL-P-53030 epoxy primers to a DFT of 0.9 to 1.1<br />
mils (0.0009 to 0.0011 inch), as applicable, from the<br />
equipment system specific technical data. Application<br />
shall be per procedures in Chapters 4, 5, and 6 of <strong>TO</strong><br />
1-1-8.<br />
MIL-DTL-64159, COATING, POLYURETHANE, CHEMI-<br />
CAL RESISTANT, WATERBORNE 24<br />
e. Apply two coats of MIL-PRF-85285 standard polyurethane<br />
coating, MIL-DTL-64159 waterborne CARC<br />
polyurethane coating, or other coating specified by system-specific<br />
technical manuals or the equipment SPM to<br />
a DFT of 1.8 to 3.2 mils (0.0018 to 0.0032 inch) over<br />
the primer per procedures in Chapters 4, 5, and 6 of <strong>TO</strong><br />
1-1-8. The color and gloss shall match the existing coating<br />
system as specified in equipment system specific<br />
technical data or as otherwise directed by the equipment<br />
SPM.<br />
f. Cases which are lightly scratched or in need of repainting<br />
shall be lightly sanded and cleaned of dirt, dust, oil<br />
or grease, and recoated with polyurethane coating in<br />
accordance with paragraph 7.11.3 step e.<br />
7.12 RUST CONVERTERS.<br />
Rust converters typically consist of mixtures of phosphoric<br />
acid, organic alcohols, and tannates in a latex matrix that<br />
forms a protective film on the metal surface that protects<br />
against rust. They are designed to be applied directly to rusty<br />
surfaces to convert residual rust on steel surfaces to harmless<br />
and adherent chemical compound. Unlike the standard scrape,<br />
prime, and paint regime, the surface does not require stripping<br />
to bare metal. Rust converters, topcoated with MIL-PRF-<br />
85285, serve as a 180-day temporary repair.<br />
