specified shall be finished by tamping the concrete with special tools
to force the coarse aggregate away from the surface, then screeding. and
floating with straightedges to bring the surface to the required finish
level shown on the drawings. While the concrete is st4l green but suf-
ficiently hardened to bear a man's weight without deep.imprint, it shall
be wood-floated to a true even plane with no coarse aggregate visible.
Sufficient pressure shall be used on the wood floats to .bring moisture to
the surface.- The concrete shall then be hand-troweled to produce a smooth
impervious surface free from trowel marks, Additional troweling shall be
given the surface for the purpose of burnishing. The final troweling
siaall produce a ringing sound from the trowel.
b. Wood-float finish shall be given to tops of walls and
similar exposed surfaces and shall be obtained by tamping with special
tools to force aggregate away from the surface, then screeding with
straightedges to bring surface to required line as shown on the drawings.

to be painted shall be clean, smooth, dry and free from dust, grit and
frost. All work shall be done in a workmanlike manner, leaving the
finished surfaces free from drops, rigges, waves, laps, and brush marks.
Paint shall be applied under dry and dust-free conditions and, unless
otherwise approved by the Contracting Officer, shall not be applied
when the temperature is below 50?F, nor when a temperature drop of
20?F., or more is forcast nor when the temperature is over 90?F. All
primer and intermediate coats of paint Shall be unscarred and com-
pletely, integral at the time of application of each succeeding coat.
Each coat of paint shall have a slight variation of color to dis-
tinguish it from the preceding coat. Sufficient time shall be allowed
between coats to insure proper drying. Paints shall be thoroughly
stirred and kept at a uniform consistency during application and
shall not be thinned in excess of the printed directions of the
manufacturer. Paint containers shall not be opened until required
for use. Paint may be applied by the spray method except during cold
bather or when in the opinion of the Contracting Officer, spraying
in any particular application would produce unsatisfactory results.
Floors and other adjacent work shall be properly protected by drop
