SSPC-VIS 3 is a visual reference guide designed to assist in the assessment of steel surfaces prepared by hand and power tools prior to the application of paints and protective coatings.
The guide contains color reference photographs showing various conditions of hot-rolled carbon steel, including painted, unpainted, rusted and welded surfaces, before and after hand- and power-tool cleaning.
SSPC-VIS 3 is used as a visual supplement to SSPC-SP 2, SSPC-SP 3, SSPC-SP 11 and SSPC-SP 15, allowing actual surface conditions to be compared with reference photographs during inspection and quality-control activities.
