Areas where the existing paint has peeled, flaked, blistered, or otherwise become deteriorated shall be cleaned until only sound paint, tightly adherent paint remains. These areas need not be cleaned to SP-11 if the damage does not extend to the steel surface and corrosion of the steel substrate or the mill scale is not evident.

K. Special attention shall be given to the edges of beam flanges, angles and plates, bearings, rivets, the heads of nuts and bolts, structural steel surrounding bridge joints, and similar surfaces that are marginally accessible and difficult to clean.

L. The edges of intact paint shall be feathered back and the adjoining paint must be tightly adhered. Ragged or lifting edges on adjoining paint will not be allowed. Adherence will only be considered satisfactory if the adjoining paint is smoothly feathered back, and cannot be removed by lifting with a dull putty knife.

M. Areas exhibiting damaged or deteriorated paint not extending to the steel shall be power-tool cleaned to remove all damaged or loosely adhered paint and provide a suitable surface for top coating. Loosely adhered paint will lift when scraped with a dull putty knife.

N. After cleaning and feathering edges, all remaining tightly adhered coating shall be abraded. The abrading operation shall not fracture or remove a significant amount of existing coating, only provide surface profile suitable to receive additional coats of paint.
