CHECKLIST FOR PAINTING DEVELOPMENT



1)    During painting, adequate precautions be taken so as not to cause any damage/stains to the walls, tiles, and all other finishing items.

2)      All ladder legs, scaffold bottoms should be padded so that no sharp ends are in contact with the walls, floor tiles etc.

3)     The entire painting floor area should be covered with cardboard/plastic sheets. 

4)     Any paint drops, brush marks on the floor, glass panes, fittings, etc. should be cleaned immediately.

8)      The painted surface should be free from paint drops, dabs, brush marks, waves, and there should not be shade variation in colour, texture and finish.

9)     All stages of work should be done under cover of artificial lights i.e. CFL bulbs or Fluoroscent tubes.

10)    At no point, should these hot bulbs/tubes come in contact with doors, shutters, electric switches as it may result in burning/melting .

11)   Adhere strictly to the specified process of work, dilution ratios, drying time for undercoats along with paint manufacturer's recommended best practices at all times.

12)   All the surfaces to be painted should be checked with a moisture meter prior to the commencement of the works.

13)   All paint cans/drums/bags should be delivered sealed to the site and a copy of the challan must be kept with the site engineer. The sealed cans must be opened in the presence of the site engineer and all empty cans/drums/bags of paint used on site must be handed over to the site engineer after consumption for proper reconciliation.

This has to be done in order to check the chances of theft & also to keep a check on the coverage of the paint so that any excess dilution of the paint is checked. Such a check would also help in following the paint manufacturer's processes and mixes in a more stringent manner. 


Paint cans do not leave the site till the work is entirely complete.
