IntroductionIntroduction
Purpose for RL protective linings is toprovide:
oAbrasion resistance
o Chemical resistance
o Impact resistance
o Slip resistance

bond to. For steel, SSPC (Society for Protective
Coatings) has created specific surface prepstandards.
SSPC Standards cover varying levels ofcleanliness for the steel surface.

AbrasionAbrasion -- RecommendationsRecommendations
For Rhino products,abrasive blasting
proven best; Producesconsistent roughprofile.
Want a 2 3 milsurface profile for best
results.
8/14/2019 FAPL Chapter 3 - Surface Prep

AbrasionAbrasion -- RecommendationsRecommendations
SP-11 is acceptable for light dutyapplications.
For immersion service or heavy duty, want
minimum SP-10 (near-white) or SP-5 (whitemetal).

AbrasionAbrasion -- RecommendationsRecommendations
Common aggregate forcorrect profile: 16 or 24 grit aluminum
oxide
8/35 mesh silica sand
G-25 or G-40 steel grit
16 mesh garnet
Generally best to out -source blasting.

AbrasionAbrasion -- RecommendationsRecommendations
Flash Rust: may become a problem in humidareas. Consider only blasting what you can coat within
24 hours.
Prime blasted areas quickly to avoid flash rust.

Soluble SaltsSoluble Salts
In certain areas, steel can be contaminatedwith soluble salts.
Salts can cause blistering and delamination.
Test for soluble salts.

Age & Condition of concrete minimum cure time is 28 days
old concrete, greater likelihoodof contamination
strength: hard or crumbly?
Laitance: weak surface layer of cement
Efflorescence: white powdery residue created bylime in concrete leaching to surface.

Moisture Vapor TransmissionMoisture Vapor Transmission
Concrete being porous, allowsmoisture to pass through
causing hydrostatic pressure.
Measure moisture level within
concrete with moisture meter. If greater than 7% moisture,
then test for vapor transmission.

2. Clean2. Clean For oil, grease, or soiled areas:
1. Wipe, brush, or scrape away heavy deposits.
2. Use hot water with trisodium phosphate (TSP), orenzyme cleaner or steam cleaning.
Do not use solvents.
3. Rinse with clean water.

For Rhino materials, recommend 3 options:
1. Disc Grinding
2. Abrasive (sand) Blasting
3. Scarifying
Consider sub-contracting out to a
professional.

Pros: fairly quick and easy; good for largeareas;
Cons: minimal surface profile; creates fine dust(minimize with vacuum)
