The DEP 30.48.00.31-Gen article 5.4 reads :
"5.3 COMPATIBILITY WITH EXISTING COATING SYSTEMS:
Before any painting work is commenced, the compatibility with existing coating systems or
layers shall be checked. The paint Manufacturer shall be consulted. If there is any doubt
about compatibility, the patch test in accordance with ASTM D5064 shall be conducted to
evaluate the inter-coat adhesion. For new construction, modifications and areas under
renovation, [highlight #FCE94F]all coating materials in a coating system shall be made by the same
Manufacturer[/highlight]."
Does this means all the project should use one manufacturer even if the project scale is big and one supplier can not commit to the full quantity?
We have this situation where paint system is supplied from one manufacturer that is failing to cope up with the requirements, so contractor is proposing to use another manufacturer of the same paint system, but quality team is rejecting and depending on the above paragraph to justify their stand . Note, MAR and PQT of new manufacturer is approved by client.
