[MW:31782] RE: SSPC SP 6 - 63

Hi,

I think there're some mix-ups in the specifications and interpretations. SSPC SP6 or other specifications are applicable for  surface preparation by blasting for application of paints.

For the refractories the criteria is a bit different. Following is the extract from  API -936, for surface preparation before applications of refractory.

You may read the standard, discuss and settle the issue with the client based on the API-936 guidelines.

Thanks.

Subject: SSPC SP 6 - 63

 

Hello everyone.

 

I encountered a requirement from a Licensor specification that internal surface should be prepared as per SSPC SP 6 - 63 prior to refractory application.

 

I know SSPC SP 6 means commercial blast but I have never encountered or saw a surface preparation requirement "SP 6 - 63".

 

Does anyone know what this means?

 

Thank you in advance.
