Safety tip Make sure that you use the correct manual handling techniques when lifting and moving items and use stepladders correctly when taking down pictures or covering light fittings. See Unit 1001 (pages XX–XX) and Unit 1007 (pages XX–XX).

Before any decoration is done, the most important task for the decorator is the protection of any areas, items, fixtures and fittings that are not being worked on and could be damaged. Common items that need protecting include: carpets, rugs and other types of flooring l sofas, curtains, chairs, tables, electrical equipment l pictures, shelving, wall lights and sockets l ceiling light fittings, shades and fire alarms/smoke detectors l door furniture (handles, hinges, locks etc.) l plant pots, garden seats and patio areas. It is very important that, before you start any work, you look around and make sure that all items are protected by removing them or covering them with the appropriate material. Damage caused during decorating could be very costly, both to the decorator’s pocket and reputation. l

Preparing the working area

Remember boxes highlight key pieces of information, helping candidates to ensure they don’t forget the basics.

When preparing internal or external work areas prior to carrying out the application of paint systems, you need to make sure that all dust and debris (flakes of paint, bristles, pieces of abrasive paper etc.) have been removed so that no contamination can occur to the surfaces while coatings are still wet.

Remember Preparing the work area can help prevent defects, such as bittiness, which you would otherwise need to rectify later.

Find out Using the Internet and other resources, find out what impact certain weather conditions, such as high temperatures and rain, can have on painting

On some contracts, you will find that other trades are working alongside you, for example joiners, electricians and plasterers. When working on this type of set-up, you will need to have an access and exit point from the premises. This will allow all trades to access and exit the area safely and avoid any accidents. You may also need to be able to seal off your working area if you are working with paints or coatings that are toxic. This is to protect the general public. Decorators may also need to wear appropriate PPE when working in these areas. The working area will need to have sufficient ventilation and extraction systems installed to disperse the build-up of any fumes. Any extraction system used will need to be masked to prevent damage from coatings prior to starting any decoration work. When you have finished decorating, always place items back in their original position. This will leave the client with a good impression of your work and can help to develop good relationships. You may then benefit from customer recommendation.

Common items requiring protection and methods used As previously stated, you should always assess a work area for items that need to be protected before starting your work. Figure 9.2 shows some examples.

4

Did you know? An example of an area that will need ventilation and extraction systems set up could be a room or corridor that needs to be decorated with a specialist coating

Safety tip You need to be especially careful for the safety of the general public if the contract is in a hospital or shopping centre or other area where there is a great deal of contact with the general public

Site preparation can result in injury. Always be aware of the risks involved with the work you do, such as slips, trips, falls and manual handling injuries.

For external painting jobs, the weather is a particular concern as it can have a direct impact on the final quality of the job. When applying coatings to surfaces, it is not only damp and cold weather that can cause defects; sunlight and high humidity conditions can lead to defects such as blistering, cracking, flashing and flaking. Figure 9.2 What do you think may need protecting in this room? Turn page over for answers.

156

Figure 9.1 Tent used to protect paintwork

Safety tip

If you are working externally, you will also need to make sure that you protect the area from the impact of weather and climate. One of the possible ways of doing this is through tenting. This involves putting up a full cover that protects the job from rain, wind, snow and also the effects of the sun (see Figure 9.1). It will also help to protect the general public from hazards.

Find out features help to stretch more-able learners and provide them with additional sources for further research and information.

Safety tips help candidates to apply best practice and work in a safe and responsible manner.

FAQs give candidates clear and concise explanations of frequently asked questions.

Whichever type of roller you use, you will need a container in which to hold the paint. A roller tray or a scuttle has a deep end that holds the paint, and a shallow, rough area where you can work the roller in preparation for applying the paint to the surface. The roller should be dipped into the paint and then repeatedly rolled against the rough part of the container. The rolling action removes excess paint from the roller, ensuring that the right amount of paint is applied to the surface. When painting a surface using a roller, use a ‘W’ motion (figure 9.38). Laying off with a roller should be done in a vertical movement, which, if done well, will ensure that no lines are left on the surface.

Key term Decanting – pouring liquid from one container to another (in this case, from the stock pot into the work pot)

Stages of surface coating preparation You may think that there is not much to opening a tin of paint and decanting it into a work pot. However, if you follow a few golden rules at the very beginning of a painting job, you will find that the rest of the job is much easier. It is always better to work from a work pot and not the stock pot. This is because a full stock pot will be heavy and difficult to manage. In addition, if a stock pot is knocked over, you will lose a lot of paint. l Gently dust the stock pot before you open it. This will greatly reduce the amount of dust and debris that gets into the paint. l Most paints require a thorough stir before use, but always check the manufacturer’s instructions first, just in case they advise different treatment of the paint. l

What is a paint system?

How do I know what a substrate is?

A paint system is a term used to describe what coatings need to be applied to a substrate and in what order they need to be applied to correctly to coat up the surface or substrate correctly. If you are required to finish new softwood furnishings such as skirting boards, architrave, doors and windows with white gloss, you would need to apply the correct system. The first stage in the system would be to apply knotting to any bare knots and then apply a suitable white primer followed by a white undercoat, then finished with a white gloss.

A substrate is a term used for a surface such as brick, plaster, timber, steel or cement – as well as natural stone, masonry surfaces and ceramic or porcelain tiles – that needs coatings applied to it for either protection or decoration. Do I have to mix all paints prior to using them? No. Thixotropic paints (for example, non-drip gloss) should not be mixed as these coatings have been specially made for their non-drip properties. If you mix them you will reduce their usefulness and purpose. It is always recommended that you follow the manufacturer’s information regarding using coatings so that you use them correctly.

Gravity, suction and pressure feed spray guns

Suction feed guns are better suited when changing colours regularly and when small tasks are required, such as touch ups.

Spray guns are designed to atomise fluids at the tip of the nozzle to make application easier. Gravity feed and suction feed spray guns have two passageways fixed at the nozzle, one for the fluid and one for the air. Atomisation is achieved by a vacuum formed by the rush of air moving past the fluid passage while drawing fluid into the air stream. At this point of contact the fluid is mixed with air and a spray mist leaves the nozzle under pressure.

Did you know?

Key term Air line – used during spraying to transport the air. A high volume airline is used with HVLP spray equipment to operate the gun when the coating is being atomised Fluid line – used to transport the coating to the gun during spraying

Key terms are highlighted and explained so candidates can quickly grasp the meaning of what they are reading.

Gravity feed A gravity feed gun has a container fixed to the top of the gun. The coating is fed into the gun by the coating pressing down towards the nozzle of the gun. Because the coating is gravity fed, less air pressure is required to atomise the coating. This creates less overspray and therefore less waste. Gravity feed guns are therefore ideal for details and spot repairs. Suction feed A suction feed gun has a container fixed to the bottom of the gun and draws the fluid to the gun by suction. This requires more air pressure than the gravity feed system in order to create a strong enough vacuum to pull the coating up the feeding tube from the container. It creates more overspray. It is possible to atomise at a lower air pressure by pressurising the cup, forcing the fluid up the feed tube. The cup can be pressurised by an air tube extending from the air supply to the cup. Pressure feed A pressure feed gun operates by positive pressure. This means the air is fed to the container causing a pressure vacuum. This system sends the fluid and air directly to the gun. The coating container is usually kept some distance from the spray gun to aid application. It requires long lengths of air and fluid lines. It is normally used for large areas where a faster application is required and for heavier coatings.

Types of spray gun

Air spray (conventional)

Figure 23.11 Air spray gun

Paint is applied to the part by pneumatic fluid atomisation at higher air pressures. Air spray guns come in a variety of configurations: siphon feed, gravity feed, and pressure feed. This type of spray gun is most commonly used for industrial finishing. l

Advantages – complete pattern control. Finest atomisation. Good for high production rate applications.

256

Always hold the gun perpendicular to the surface, that is, square to the surface. The correct spraying speed allows a full wet coat of paint or coating to be applied to the surface without any defects. You should move the gun in a confident, flowing fashion, without hesitation.

Working Life boxes provide personal experiences of people in the industry who share problems and issues they have had at work, and how they overcame them.

Application techniques for obstacles When carrying out spray painting jobs you may come across obstacles such as pipe work and other obstructions, such as fixed machinery, which cannot be removed. You will also need to spray surfaces with internal and external corners. To make sure that the surfaces are coated correctly you may need to use paint brushes to help with the application, because of the awkwardness of these surfaces and to prevent overcoating. This is known as strip coating, where internal corners and around pipe work, beams and machinery is painted in with a brush to avoid a build up of paint which could lead to runs and sagging. Some external corners may also need strip coating. Working life Junaid is working on a new build site. He is a first-year apprentice and is proving to be a very quick learner. Junaid’s boss comes and tells him that, when he has finished what he is doing, Junaid is to go and get a paint sprayer and start a new job using this piece of equipment. Junaid tells his boss that he has never used a paint sprayer before. Junaid’s boss says that the instructions are in the box and Junaid should be able to work it out. What do you think Junaid should do? Do you think Junaid’s boss is right to ask him to carry out this task?

Tilting the spray gun causes similar faults to arcing – excessive overspray and an uneven or patchy finish.

CHECK YOUR KNOWLEDGE

Getting ready for assessment The information contained in this unit, as well as the continued practical assignments that you will carry out in your college or training centre, will help you in preparing for both your end-of-unit test and the diploma multiple-choice test. It will also aid you in preparing for the work that is required for the synoptic practical assignments.

HVLP spray equipment is becoming increasingly common and is being used in a wide range of locations, not just industrial areas and jobs. You will need to be familiar with how these systems work, as well as the different safety and application implications that exist when using them. Your practical work will require you to be able to set-up and use one of these machines to successfully complete a job.

Before you carry out any work, you should outline your plan of action, which will tell you the order you need to do things in. It will also record a rough timescale for the work you need to carry out, in order to make sure that you complete everything you need to do safely. You will need to refer back to this plan at each stage to make sure that you are not making any mistakes as you work. Applying foundation and plain papers to a range of surfaces areas is a crucial practical skill for painters and decorators and you will need to be sure that you are following all the correct procedures to make sure the final job is completed to the highest possible standard. Your speed in carrying out any tasks in a practice setting will also help to prepare you for the time set for the test. However, you must never rush the test! Always make sure you are working safely. Make sure throughout the test that you are wearing the appropriate PPE and using tools correctly.

Good luck!
