Q

Paint life depends primarily on surface preparation.

A

true

30
Q

Fabrication should preferably be complete before surface preparation begins.

A

true

31
Q

Coatings should be applied to wet or damp surfaces

A

false

32
Q

Paint can be applied when the temperature is below 4°C.

A

false

33
Q

The paint surface should be dry before application of overcoating.

A

true

34
Q

Surface cleaning includes removal of contaminants/coats of materials other than metal and removal of coated material related to the metal (scale and rust).

A

true

35
Q

Any and all holes and surface imperfections should be cleaned and filled in an approved manner before painting.

A

true

36
Q

The number of coats should be the maximum needed to achieve the specified film thickness.

A

false

37
Q

Any surfaces to be coated should be rendered dust-free prior to the application of the prime coat

A

true

38
Q

Paints should be stored in open containers to keep them fresh.

A

false

39
Q

Both normal finishing paints and drum paints require rolling during the storage period.

A

false

40
Q

Containers that have been previously opened should be used first.

A

true

41
Q

The newest paint of each kind should be used first.

A

false

42
Q

The paint temperature should not be excessively high or low in any conditons.

A

false

43
Q

Paints should preferably be mixed by hand.

A

false

44
Q

The paint should be mixed in a manner that will ensure the breakup of all lumps, complete dispersion of pigment, and a uniform composition.

A

true

45
Q

Methods of surface preparation include degreasing, pickling, manual cleaning, flame cleaning, and blasting.

A

true

46
Q

Mixing in open containers should be done in a well-ventilated area, away from sparks or flames.

A

true

47
Q

Paint that does not have a limited pot life or does not deteriorate on standing should not be remixed before using.

A

false

48
Q

The entire paint contents should be poured into an empty clean drum or can, ensuring that no heavy paste remains in the original container.

A

true

49
Q

When mixing two-component paints, check and remix each component simultaneously and then blend the two components at a very fast speed until the mixture is completely uniform in color.

A

false

50
Q

A

true

51
Q

The addition of more water than is necessary to obtain a satisfactory brushing consistency is allowed.

A

false

52
Q

The brush should not be dipped more than one-third of the bristle length into the paint to avoid overloading the bristles and filling the heel with paint.

A

true

53
Q

true

54
Q

There are several types of spray equipment: air, airless, hot, and electrostatic spray.

A

true

55
Q

Standard methods of rust removal include blasting, manual or mechanical rust removal, flame cleaning, and pickling.

A

true

56
Q

Hot coatings could be applied to cold surfaces and vice versa.

A

false

57
Q

The original method of spray application was by air atomization.

true

58
Q

The pressure on the material in the pot and of the air at the gun should be adjusted for optimum spraying effectiveness

A

true

59
Q

If compressor units for air spray equipment are powered by a gas or diesel engine, they should be located inside the building.

A

false

60
Q

Airless spray relies on hydraulic pressure rather than air atomization to produce the desired spray.

A

true

61
Q

Heavier coatings are usually used, and because of the lower degree of control given by the airless spray gun and the high paint flow rate, greater resistance to sagging and tearing is required from the paint.

A

true

62
Q

Paint must never be allowed to dry in the gun.

A

true

63
Q

Airless spray usually is faster, cleaner, more economical, and easier to use than conventional air spray and applies thicker film.

A

true

64
Q

Heating enables the solvent content of the material to be reduced, allowing a thinner film to be applied.

A

false

65
Q

Electrostatic spraying can frequently be used for on-site work.

A

false

66
Q

All surfaces can be prepared for the application of protective coatings by only using one single universal method.

A

false

67
Q

The electrostatic spray technique uses expensive equipment and has a slower operation than other spray applications.

A

true

68
Q

Pickling is a method of preparing metal surfaces by chemical reaction, electrolysis, or both.

A

true

69
Q

Pickling is NOT considered a desirable method of removing rust and mill scale from structural shapes, beams, and plates in workshops when the cost of such removal is felt to be justified.

A

false
