Pre-construction primers (also known as shop primers or pre-fabrication primers) are very thin films applied to blast cleaned steel plates and shapes to provide preservation of the blasted steel during the shipbuilding or construction process. SSPC is developing an industry guide document containing information regarding the use of pre-construction primers (PCP) on structural steel in shipbuilding. This paper will review the technical details contained in the document including background on the reasons to use and retain PCPs, the types of PCPs and their application and inspection, and the secondary surface preparation processes that are used when PCPs are retained in the final, compatible primary coating system.
