Creating Passion: Your Responsibilities
Responsibilities
Surface Preparation
- Perform pre-cleaning, degreasing, and removal of contaminants such as oil, grease, dust, rust, and scale using manual or mechanical methods (e.g., shot blasting, wire brushing).
- Ensure surface profile meets paint manufacturer's requirements (anchor pattern, cleanliness).

Primer & Intermediate Coat Application
- Apply primer coat uniformly ensuring no under-coating or over-spray.
- Apply intermediate coats as specified in the paint system (e.g., epoxy, zincrich, polyamide-based primers).
- Allow proper flash-off and curing time between coats.

Top Coat Application
- Apply final topcoat (e.g., polyurethane, alkyd, or epoxy finish) with correct technique (HVLP, Airless spray) ensuring even finish, correct gloss, and required shade.

Paint Mixing and Material Handling
- Mix paints and hardeners in correct ratios as per technical data sheet (TDS).
- Label and use paint materials before expiry date; follow FIFO.
- Ensure correct storage of paints, thinners, and solvents as per MSDS.





Quality Control Checks
- Measure WFT (Wet Film Thickness) during application.
- Measure DFT (Dry Film Thickness) using Elcometer after curing.
- Record batch numbers, WFT/DFT results, touch-up details in paint logbook or ERP.
- Perform visual inspection for defects such as pinholes, orange peel, drips, undercoating, or shade mismatch.

Process Compliance
- Follow standard work instructions (WI), SOPs, and job cards for each order.
- Ensure compliance with ISO 12944, ISO 8501-1, and customer-specific corrosion protection standards.
- Apply correct masking, protection of machined/critical surfaces before painting.

Touch-Up & Repairs
- Identify areas needing repair post-handling, welding, or transport.
- Rework based on inspection reports while ensuring blending with original coating.

Equipment & Tool Handling
- Operate spray painting equipment (conventional, airless, or electrostatic).
- Clean and maintain spray
