Standard Specification for Shipbuilders and Marine Paints and Coatings Product/Procedure Data Sheet

ABSTRACT
The Shipbuilders and Marine Paints and Coatings Product/Procedure Data Sheet2 provides on one sheet needed information concerning the characteristics of a specific paint or coating to include generic description, physical properties, surface preparation requirements, application requirements, and safety. When filling out the Product/Procedure Data Sheet remember that the information contained therein will be utilized by both technical and production personnel. The completed data sheets can be used by technical personnel to help evaluate the technical acceptability of a proposed material, by production personnel to evaluate production compatibility of proposed materials and to provide application instructions for selected paints and coatings materials, and by quality control personnel to verify attributes of materials.
SCOPE
1.1 The Shipbuilders and Marine Paints and Coatings Product/Procedure Data Sheet2 provides on one sheet needed information concerning the characteristics of a specific paint or coating to include generic description, physical properties, surface preparation requirements, application requirements, and safety. The front side of the sheet contains four major, numbered paragraphs and a highlighted section for Special Safety Precautions. These paragraphs are as follows:
I. Generic Type and Description
II. Manufacturers Data
III. Properties  
IV. Surface Preparation Minimum Requirements  
The back side of the page contains the following paragraphs:
V. Mixing Procedure
VI. Application  
1.2 The completed data sheets can be used by technical personnel to help evaluate the technical acceptability of a proposed material, by production personnel to evaluate production compatibility of proposed materials and to provide application instructions for selected paints and coatings materials, and by quality control personnel to verify attributes of materials.  
1.3 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

This document is not an ASTM standard and is intended only to provide the user of an ASTM standard an indication of what changes have been made to the previous version. Because
it may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current version
of the standard as published by ASTM is to be considered the official document.
