MATERIALS: Materials used shall comply with the provisions of applicable related specifications and purchase descriptions listed herein. Paint shall be homogenous, easily stirred to smooth consistency, and shall show no objectionable characteristics due to prolonged storage. The composition and quality of the paint shall be such as to produce a strong and adherent binder for the reflective media, form a firm bond with the pavement on which applied, and have sufficient resistance to weathering and traffic. a. Pigmented Binder: Pigmented binder (paint) covered by Federal Specification TT-P-1952D shall be used for reflective and non-reflective markings b. Reflective Media: Reflective spheres with a reflective index of not less than 1.5, as covered in Federal Specification TT-B-1325C, Type I, 1.5 Index of Refraction: Gradation A (Course Drop-on) shall be used for reflective markings. 15. RATE OF APPLICATION: Pigmented Binder, referred to in paragraph 14 above, shall be applied at a rate of 1 gallon spread evenly over existing painted pavement area of 120, ? 5 square feet for both reflective and non-reflective markings. This is equivalent to 12 to 14 mils wet thickness or 7 to 8 mils dry thickness. Reflective Media: Reflective glass spheres shall be applied uniformly to wet paint on roads and streets at a rate of 6 pounds of glass spheres for each gallon of paint. The maximum acceptable tolerable level for both types of pavement shall be ? .5 points of glass spheres per gallon of paint. 16. EQUIPMENT: a. Paint Applicator: The equipment for applying the paint is to be self propelled or mobile drawn pneumatic spraying machine with an arrangement of atomizing nozzles capable of applying in a single pass, a line 4 inches to 6 inches in width. The applicator is to be capable of applying the line at a speed of not less 4 miles per hour. The machine is to be capable of applying the paint at the rates specified in paragraph 14 at an even and uniform thickness, with clear-cut edges. The paint applicator is to have a paint reservoir or tank of sufficient capacity to apply paint as prescribed by the requirements of this specification. The spray mechanism will be operated by means of quick opening and closing valves conveniently located and will include the necessary pressure regulators and gauges in full view and reach of the operator at all times. The paint applicator will be readily adaptable for attachment of an air-actuated dispenser for the reflective media. Paint strainers will be installed in the paint supply lines to ensure freedom from residue and foreign matter that may cause malfunction of the spray guns. b. Reflective Media dispenser: The dispenser for drop in of reflective media will be attached to the paint dispenser and operated automatically and simultaneously with the paint applicator through the same control mechanism. The dispenser will be designed to provide uniform flow of reflective media at the established rate of coverage, as indicated in paragraph 15 above, regardless of the speed of the paint applicator to which it is attached. The dispenser should be timed with a delay shut off after the paint such that a full application rate of reflective media is applied all the way to the edge of the painted area. c. Paint Removal. The equipment used in the removal process shall be mounted on pneumatic tires and shall remove deposits of paint without causing damage to pavement surfaces, joints, or joint and crack seal material. 17. WEATHER LIMITATIONS: The paint and reflective media, or the paint alone shall not be applied to damp or wet pavement surfaces, or when inclement weather threatens to interrupt normal progress of work. Paint shall not be applied when the ambient temperature is below 50 ?F or exceeds 95 ?F, when the relative humidity exceeds 90 percent nor when the wind velocity exceeds 15 miles per hour. 18. SURFACE PREPERATION: a. Paint Removal. The Contractor is required to remove 85 percent of the paint buildup from designated areas of roadway pavement. Paint shall be removed by high-pressure water and/or grinding. The Contractor may inject sand as an abrasive into the high-pressure water system. The use of environmentally acceptable chemical agents or high velocity impact removal shall be considered on a case-by-case basis. Use of any chemicals or impact abrasive in the removal process must be approved in advance by the CO. The Government specifically reserves the right to reject the use of any paint removal process which the CO determines may pose unnecessary risks to human health, or the environment, as a result of its use, storage, or disposal. b. Test Strip Demonstration. The Contractor shall test all equipment and demonstrate on the designated pavement work areas the proposed method to be used to remove paint. The Contracting Officer (CO) will designate a test strip within the work area. The test strip shall be as wide as the full operating width of the equipment and long enough to determine the operating parameters of the vehicle(s) and equipment to be used for the work. The test strip shall be used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the Contractor?s methods and equipment to satisfactorily remove paint deposits from the pavement surfaces at the specified removal rate without damaging the pavement surface. The CO and/or CO?s representative(s) shall be present at the test area to examine the pavement texture obtained on the test strip. The test strip shall be the measure of performance required of the Contractor for the paint removal project. The Contractor shall not proceed with the work until the results of the test strip are satisfactory to the CO or authorized representative. c. Pavement Damage Repair. Any damage to the pavement surface, joints, joint and crack seals, or other Government property incurred during the performance of the work shall be repaired by the Contractor at the Contractor?s expense. Repair methods and materials shall be approved by the CO prior to performance of the repairs. Repairs shall be completed within the performance period for the contract. d. All surfaces to be marked shall be thoroughly cleaned immediately prior to application of the paint. Dust, clay, silt, and other granular surface deposits shall be removed by sweeping, blowing with compressed air, rinsing with water, or a combination of these methods, as required 19. APPLICATION OF PAINT AND REFLECTIVE MEDIA: a. After the surfaces to be painted have been prepared in accordance with paragraph 18 above, the paint binder shall be applied at a rate of coverage specified in paragraph 15 above. The width of the lines should match the existing in place. Workmanship shall conform to the best commercial practices consistent with these specifications. Completed work, as well as work in progress, is subject to the Contracting Officer or designated representatives approval in all respects. Areas not properly painted shall be repaired at no additional cost to the government. Any spilled paint shall be cleaned from the paved areas to the satisfaction of the Contracting Officer or designated representative and this clean up must meet all requirements in paragraphs 6 and 9 above. The contractor shall keep the premises clean at all times. Paint, empty containers, and other material or equipment shall not be stored or allowed to accumulate on or near the paved areas. b. Reflective Media: Drop in application of the glass spheres shall be accomplished in such a manner to ensure that the reflective media is evenly distributed at the specified rate of coverage. Application of the reflective media shall immediately follow the application of the paint binder. Should there be a malfunction of either the paint applicator or the reflective media dispenser, operations shall be immediately discontinued until the discrepancy is corrected. The area painted during malfunction of the equipment shall be corrected at no additional cost to the government. 20. PROTECTION OF WORK: Newly painted surfaces shall be protected from damage by vehicles during the time required for paint to harden sufficiently to withstand traffic. Contractor shall provide and place traffic cones along the vehicle drive lanes and centerline to alert or divert vehicle traffic in order to protect painted surfaces until paint dries. During periods of high wind, 15 miles per hour or greater, painting shall be discontinued. Any damage to newly painted markings because of contractor?s failure to provide adequate protection, shall be repaired by him at no additional cost. 21. JOB SITE VERIFICATION: The dimensions and quantities that follow are provided to the contractor for approximation purposes only. Failure to field verify the dimensions and quantities will be at the Contractors risk and shall not relieve the Contractor from accomplishing the work required by the contract at the price awarded by the government. The approximate amount of existing paint to be removed is 2,500 liner feet. The approximate amount of white solid line is 32,300 linear feet. The approximate amount of white dashed lines is 16,500 linear feet of road distance. The approximate amount of yellow solid line is 31,850 linear feet. The approximate amount of double yellow solid line is 12,075 linear feet. The approximate amount of yellow dashed line is 7050 linear feet of road distance. There are approximately 56 arrows of different configurations (left, right, left and straight etc.) There is approximately 2,076 feet of road surface that requires crosswalks. The approximate amount of stop line is 1,400 linear feet. 22. GUARANTEE: Any work found to be defective because of either poor workmanship or defective materials which may be evident within a period of 60 days or less from acceptance, shall be replaced by the contractor at no additional cost to the Government. Indications of defective workmanship or materials include, but are not limited to, poor adhesion to the pavement surfaces, checking, cracking, peeling, discoloration, and excessive loss of reflective media. This is not to be construed to include wear, damage, discoloration, or injurious effects from normal exposure to the elements and traffic.
