Q

What does SSPC-SP6/NACE No. 3 allow in terms of staining?

A

Up to 33% staining allowed per unit area

This standard permits some staining while ensuring most contaminants are removed.

22
Q

What is the purpose of SSPC-SP10/NACE No. 2?

A

Removes nearly all contaminants, allowing minimal staining

This standard is less stringent than SSPC-SP5 but still requires a high level of cleanliness.

23
Q

What is the cleanliness requirement for SSPC-SP10/NACE No. 2?

A

Up to 5% staining allowed per unit area

This allows for very minimal staining after cleaning.

24
Q

What does SSPC-SP11 achieve?

The focus is on ensuring that surfaces are adequately cleaned.

28
Q

What does SSPC-SP13/NACE No. 6 prepare surfaces for?

A

Prepares concrete surfaces for coating

This standard specifically addresses the preparation of concrete, which has different requirements than metal surfaces.

29
Q

What is the cleanliness requirement for SSPC-SP13/NACE No. 6?

A

No specific percentage, but the surface should be free of contaminants and provide a sound, uniform substrate

Ensures a suitable base for coatings.

30
Q

What is the purpose of SSPC-PA 2?

A

Ensures coating thickness meets specified requirements

This standard relates to the application of coatings rather than surface cleanliness.

31
Q

Does SSPC-PA 2 have a cleanliness requirement?

A

Not applicable

This standard is focused on measuring coating thickness, not surface preparation.
