Concrete shall be free of all curing compounds, grease, dirt. loose particles, protuberances and all other foreign matter that would prevent adhesion or intended performance of the adhesive 1. Sweep, brush, or vacuum all surfaces clean of dust and foreign material. Remove all particles, protuberances, etc., from the sub-floor that could eventually “telegraph” through the finish material 2. Fill and level all joints, depressions and irregularities with approved patching underlayment compounds in accordance with labeling instructions, before flexible terrazzo tile flooring is installed Flatness variation of no greater than 1/8” per 10 feet shall be maintained. Chatter marks shall be sanded smooth or filled and all foreign and deleterious matter that would prevent adhesion shall be removed from substrate. Perform bond and moisture tests on concrete sub-floors to determine if surfaces are sufficiently cured and dry as well as to ascertain presence of curing, sealing, hardening or any other compounds 1. Bond Tests shall be in accordance with the tile manufacturer’s warranty requirements. 2. Moisture vapor transmission shall not exceed seven pounds per 1,000 square feet in 24 hours using FA88 adhesive. Perform tests in accordance with ASTM F 1869. Comm. No. 2683-14 09651.3 Resilient Terrazzo 3.03 INSTALLATION A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. Install Flexible Terrazzo Tile Flooring and base where indicated on drawings 1. “Float” sub-floors as required to provide a smooth/even transition at the intersection of floor coverings having different thicknesses Installation shall be by experienced and skilled mechanics, in accordance with the flooring manufacturer's latest printed instructions. Lay design symmetrically off center lines of rooms. Joints shall be tight, inconspicuous and in true alignment. Cut tile to fit snugly at fixed vertical projections. Remove spots or smears of adhesive immediately. Tile shall be rolled in adhesive with a 150 pound roller in a direction diagonal to tile alignment until adhesives have set and entire installation is flat and smooth. Traffic shall be restricted for 24 hours to allow adhesives to cure. Examine installation for excess adhesive, high tile edges, tile bond and curling. Repair or replace those areas that are reason to reject the installation. It is assumed that all sub-floors on which tile work is laid will be smooth and level. The Contractor shall, however, provide approved "underlayment", recommended by tile manufacturer for specific purpose, for filling small cracks and irregularities, as job conditions require. Lay all floor tile strictly as per manufacturer's printed specifications for particular material and type of tile. At conclusion of work, remove all damaged, defective, scratched, and discolored tile. Replace all damaged or improperly installed materials without additional cost.. Install protective covering on the new installation until acceptance of the floor. Do not apply masking tapes directly to the tile Sealing Tile: 1. Dust mop with an untreated non-linting mop to remove all loose dust and dirt 2. Damp mop using a mixture of two (2) ounces of FCP-500 All-purpose Cleaner to one (1) gallon of clean water. Follow all precautions on the product container. Rinse the floor with clear water. Do not flood the new installation with water. Do not scrub the floor and do not allow water or dirt to penetrate the tile junctures. Allow the floor to dry completely. If the factory sealed finish is accidentally removed, restore finish before applying secondary top-coatings. Note: In areas with water containing a high mineral content, use a new non-linting, soft polishing pad on a slow speed buffer to remove dried mineral deposits. If this technique must be applied, dust mop afterwards with a non-linting, untreated mop. 3. Allow the floor to completely dry, apply two (2) coats of FCP-102 Floor Sealer with a clean, non-linting string mop. During application the mop should be full, but not dripping with solution. Apply both coats all the way to the edges of the floor. Do not allow the coating to pool or puddle. Allow the floor to dry completely (min. 45 minutes) between coats. Apply the second coat of FCP-102 perpendicular to the first coat. 4. Apply two (2) to four (4) coats of FCP-300 Duro-Gloss Floor Finish with a clean rayon string mop. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next coat. FCP-300 can be high speed burnished for a “snap-gloss or can be left unbuffed for a more subtle gloss. Verify with Owner as to type of gloss finish. Comm. No. 2683-14 09651.4 Resilient Terrazzo 3.04 CLEANING A. B.

Owner reserves the right to select “custom” mixed colors for accent painting PART 3 EXECUTION 3.01 EXAMINATION A. Verify that defects in surfaces to be finished can be corrected by customary cleaning, sanding, and puttying operations. B. Measure moisture content of substrate. Do not apply finishes when moisture content of concrete masonry, and gypsum board exceeds 12 percent and when moisture content of exterior wood exceeds 15 percent. C. Measure alkalinity of concrete, plaster, and masonry surfaces. Do not apply finish when alkaline is sufficient to cause blistering of finish paint. 3.02 SURFACE PREPARATION A. General: 1. Remove any foreign materials which will adversely affect adhesion or appearance of applied coating. 2. Remove mildew and neutralize the surface. 3. Treat efflorescence after causes have been corrected. 4. Ensure screws in steel doors and frames and similar locations, are countersunk. Fill and finish flush with adjacent surfaces. B. Galvanized Steel: (Non Ferrous Metal) 1. Clean galvanized steel with Xylor. Wipe dry. 2. Repair galvanized surfaces and coat welds with zinc-rich primer. 3. Check Galvanized Steel with Copper Sulfate to Determine if Stabilizer is Present Check with Paint Manufacturer on Test to Perform. C. Ferrous Metal: 1. Wash with Mineral Spirits to remove soil, grease, and dirt. Wipe dry. 2. Remove rust, scale, and defective paint by scraping and wire brushing. a. Clean welds. Grind to remove shoulders. 3. Touch up bare metal and damaged shop coat with specified shop primer. 4. When shop coat has been repaired, omit the primer from the specified paint system. D. Concrete and Masonry: 1. Remove form oil from cast-in-place concrete. 2. Patch large holes with pointing mortar and finish flush with adjacent surface. a. Fill small holes, after priming, with prepared patching material. 3. Acid etch all concrete floors scheduled to have a paint finish applied. E. Wood: 1. Sandpaper to a smooth, even finish, then dust off. 2. Before application of primer, apply shellac, (4 lbs. cut), to knots, pitch, and resinous sapwood. 3. After primer coat has dried, putty nail holes, cracks, open joints, and other defects. Color putty to match finish. Comm. No. 2683-14 09900.6 Painting F. Gypsum Board: 1. Fill scratches and uneven areas with spackling compound and sand to a smooth finish, avoid raising nap of paper. 2. For surfaces scheduled to receive epoxy, semi-gloss or gloss enamel finish, apply skim coat of joint compound to entire surface. G. Existing Plaster: 1. Fill hairline cracks with spackling putty. 2. At deep cracks or holes cut away loose or bulging plaster from the edges and undercut in an inverted “V” cross-section. 3. Ensure that bottom of cracks and holes are wider than top so that material is keyed to surface and will not fall out. After undercutting, dust out opening and soak sides and bottom with water so that existing plaster will not absorb excess water from new plaster. 4. Patch with patching plaster. Allow a minimum of 15 hours for drying. After patch dries, sand smooth and dust completely. 5. Spot primer patched areas before painting. 6. For patching walls, spot prime patch and apply primer over entire wall. 7. For other walls, omit primer. 8. Check all walls for pH content before painting. H. Concrete floors in showers: 1.

Apply paint systems in accordance with manufacturer’s directions. Walls shall be completely painted. “Cut-outs” for wall surfaces that receive surface mounted equipment, fixtures, appliances, etc. will not be permitted. C. Use applicators and techniques best suited for substrate and type of material being applied. D. Apply materials at not less than manufacturer’s recommended spreading rate to provide a total dry film thickness not less than recommended, for the system used, by the specified manufacturer. E. Thin paint only when specifically allowed by manufacturer and not to exceed manufacturer’s directions. F. Apply paint smoothly to produce surface free of runs, holidays, brush marks, air bubbles, excessive roller stripple, and other surface imperfections. G. Apply each coat of paint slightly darker than preceding coat. H. Sand lightly between coats to achieve uniform finish. I. Allow each coat to dry before next coat is applied. K. Number of coats identified in paragraphs 2.03 & 2.04 above are minimums only.
