OPERATIONS AND TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS (T. R.)
ACTIONS BY

1. General
1.1. Given below are indications of corrosion on components made of various metallic alloys:
(a) Corrosion of steel parts is evident aa an orange-brown coating which, when spreading, turns into a
solid mass of. outgrowth of a red-brown, brown or black color accompanied by breakdown of metal
surface in the form of pitting.
(b) Corrosion of parts made from Al -alloys is evidenced first by a white powdery coat which, when
growing further, is accompanied by pits filled with the products of corrosion of white and grey color.
(c) Corrosion of Mg-alloys is indicated by formation of a loose damp deposit of a dirty-whitish color,
covering the damaged metal.
(d) Corrosion of painted parts starts with the bulging of a paint-and-varnish film and then progresses to
the flaking of the film.
(e) Corrosion of oxidized steel parts is identified by ail orange-brown rust or by spots and dots barely
differing in color from the surface of the parts.

(f) Corrosion of cadmium-plated, parts is indicated by formation of a white， grey or black spots or a

powdery coating.

2. Removal of Corrosion from Engine Components

2.2. Remove corrosion from Mg-alloy parts by dressing them with the help of abrasive cloth of 16 to 10 grade
and then subjecting them to degreasing in gasoline and local dichromating.
Carry out the local dichromating by rubbing the cleaned surfaces with a brush moistened with a solution
of the following composition:
- Potassium dichromate/sodium dichromate 179 g
- Nitric acid (sp. g. = 1.4 g/cm3) 187 mltr
- Water 1 ltr
The time of dichromating is 30 to 40 s.

WARNING: IF SOME DICHROMATING SOLUTION HAS BEEN SPILLED ON HANDS, WASH IT OFF WITH
COLD WATER.
Immediately after dichromating, wipe the surfaces of parts with a wet cloth piece and then wipe dry.

CAUTION: NEVER ALLOW THE DICHROMATING SOLUTION TO GET ONTO SURFACES OF OTHER METALS
AND ALLOYS AS IT WILL CAUSE THEIR CORROSION.
KEEP THE DICHROMATING SOLUTION IN TIGHTLY SEALED VESSELS.
2.3. Following removal of corrosion, restore the damaged paint-and-varnish coating on the engine parts (Ref.
Task Card No. 703).
If the parts are unpainted, paint them with black enamel K0-818K (Ref. Step 3.3 and Para 4 of Task Card
No. 703).

ACTIONS BY

1. General

1.1. Recondition the paint-and-vanish coatings by applying the ЭП-140 enamel (of various colors) over the
preliminarily applied layer of the ЭП-076 primer and the KO-818K enamel.
1.2. For locations of the paint-and-varnish coatings on the engine, refer to Figure 701.
1.3. The paint-and-varnish coatings have adequate protective properties when they are applied onto a
preliminarily prepared surfaces.
1.4. It is prohibited to touch up corroded surfaces because in this case corrosion continues to progress under
the painted coating causing its subsequent bulging and flaking.
1.5. Store the paint-and-varnish materials in tightly sealed vessels.

2. Preparation of Surfaces for Painting

2.1. If a painted coating has been damaged to the layer of primer, degrease the surface by wiping it with a
cloth piece moistened with gasoline and let it dry in the open air for not less than 15 min.
2.2. If a painted coating has been damaged to the metal, remove corrosion (if any) (Ref. Task Card No. 702),
dress the surface with abrasive cloth of grit Nos 16 to 10, degrease it by wiping with a cloth moistened

3. Preparation of Paint-and-Varnish Materials

3.1. The epoxidized enamel ЭП-140 is prepared just before use by mixing the semi-finished enamel and a
hardener in the following proportion:
(a) To prepare the aluminum-filled (silvery) enamel, mix 70 weight parts of the semi-finished enamel and
30 weight parts of hardener No. 4 and then add 11 weight parts of the ПАП-2 aluminum powder to
100 weight parts of the just prepared base. The enamel is ready for use after 30 min from the moment
it was prepared. The pot life of the prepared enamel is not more than 5 h.
(b) To prepare the ЭП-140 enamel (of black color), mix 70 weight parts of the semi-finished enamel with
30 weight parts of hardener No. 2. The maximum pot life of the enamel is 5 days.
This the prepared enamel to the working viscosity with thinner P-5 and then filter the enamel through
three layers of gore.
3.2. Prepare the ЭП-076 primer immediately before use. The primer is prepared by mixing 75 weight parts of
the pigmented paste and 25 weight parts of hardener No. 2.
Thin the primer to the working viscosity with thinner P-5 or a ternary mixture consisting of 30 weight
parts of acetone, 30 weight parts of ethyl cellosolve and 40 weight parts of xylene.
The pot life of the prepared primer is 5 days.
3.3. To prepare the KO-818K enamel of black color, add 5 or 6 weight parts of hardener МФСН "B" and 80 to
100 weight parts of thinner P-5 or toluene to 100 weight parts of the KO-818 enamel.
After mixing with the hardener, the enamel may be used for a period of 24 h.

4.2. Apply one coat of the enamel at a temperature within a range of plus 12 to 50 °C with the aid of a paint
blower or a brush.
It is not allowed to perform the touching-up operation in wet weather when the air humidity is higher
than 70 %.

NOTE: If a surface coated with the ЭП-140 enamel is found damaged to the metal, it is necessary prior
to applying the enamel, to spread a coat of primer ЭП-076 and to allow it to air dry until it is just
a little sticky to the touch, but for not less than 2 h.

4.3. Perform the touching-up by applying a thin uniform coat of a varnish with the aid of a paint blower or a
brush without runs and misses. A slight difference in color and thickness of the touch-up coating and the
original coating is acceptable.

4.4. Following the touching-up, allow the parts to air dry for not less than one hour.

4.5. It is recommended to carry out the touching-up operation shortly before starting the engine, as the
complete drying of the painted coating takes place during engine operation when the parts are heated.
Do not allow any moisture, oil or gasoline to get onto the freshly painted surfaces within 8 b after applying
the coating.
