PART 3  EXECUTION

3.1  EXAMINATION

	A.  Examine substrates prior to the application of any primer, bonding agent, or waterproof coating, verifying compliance with manufacturers written instructions for cleanliness, moisture, temperature, and confirm adequate preparation. 
** NOTE TO SPECIFIER ** CIM EMT and ECO Epoxy primer have the same requirements. Delete epoxy primer if not required.

	B.  Epoxy Primer Examination: Prior to application of CIM membrane, visually inspect cured primer surface. Surface must be clear and glossy, and free from milky, hazy or oily film amine blush. 
		1.  pH Verification: Verify pH of cured epoxy primer surface. Acceptable pH range is 7 to 8. 
		2.  If pH is greater than 8 or if visual amine blush is present, solvent wipe affected area with methyl ethyl ketone until pH is within recommended range.

			a.  For CIM EMT Epoxy Primer, the pH must be 7 to 8. 
		2.  Solvent Wipe, Required for pH Greater than 8 or Contamination: If the pH is high or contaminants are present, solvent wipe surface using methyl ethyl ketone until the pH is within the recommended range.
		3.  Remediation Procedure, Select Based on Primer: 
			a.  CIM ECO Epoxy Primer: After solvent wiping, reapply CIM ECO Epoxy Primer. 
			b.  CIM EMT Epoxy Primer: After solvent wiping, select one of the following procedures: 
				1)  Reapply Primer: Reapply if within 30 days of initial application.
				2)  Abrasion and Bonding Agent: Abraded the existing CIM EMT Epoxy Primer and apply CIM VOC Compliant Bonding Agent in strict compliance with manufacturer's written instructions. 
			c.  Primer Repair, CIM EMT Epoxy Primer: If the existing is damaged or compromised during the abrasion process, an additional application of Primer may be necessary to insure a monolithic primer application prior to applying the membrane.
