Part 2 – Preparation of Surface

A. Wood

Power wash or power sand all areas to be painted, and use a mild detergent
solution such as Mi-T-Ms SURFACE PREP if required. Then rinse with clear
water until all residue has been removed from all surfaces. If mildew is present,
a mildewcide may be metered into the power washer at this time. (Refer to note
on moisture content.)

Remove all dirt, chalk, and all surface contaminates that will interfere with
adhesion of subsequent coats, without damaging the substrate or adjacent
areas. Washed surfaces must be thoroughly dry before painting. (Refer to note
on moisture content.)

After washing the surfaces, the areas must be carefully examined for cracking,
blistering, peeling, or flaking of the existing paint. All loose, unsound, or non-
adhering paint must be removed. All thick edges of the remaining paint shall be
feather edged, filled as necessary, and then dusted. Spot prime all patched
areas with Nationwide 168 Prime Plus.

Degloss all glossy and previously enameled surfaces to provide a roughened
surface or “tooth” for good adhesion of subsequent coats.

Patch all holes and other surface defects with appropriate patching material, and
spot prime the patches with Nationwide Super Block.

All fasteners should be flush with surfaces.

B. Metal

Power wash, sandblast, or power sand all areas to be painted, and use a mild
detergent solution such as Mi-T-M SURFACE PREP if required. Then rinse with
clear water until all residue has been removed from all surfaces. If mildew is
present, a mildewcide may be metered into the power washer at this time. (Refer
to note on mildew.) If sandblasting is necessary to remove rust or peeling paint
and other surface preparation such as wire brushing or power sanding are not
practical, the contractor must comply with any disposal of the used sand and
solid hazardous waste material.

Remove all dirt, chalk, and all surface contaminates that will interfere with
adhesion of subsequent coats, without damaging the substrate or adjacent
areas. Washed surfaces must be thoroughly dry before painting. Remove all
