From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

ISO 8501-1 Preparation of steel substrates before application of paints and related products Visual
assessment of surface cleanliness Part 1: Rust grades and preparation grades of uncoated steel
substrates and of steel substrates after overall removal of previous coatings

It is an ISO standard, hardback A5-format book in four languages (English, French, German and Swedish), which
specifies a series of rust grades and preparation grades of steel surfaces. The various grades are defined by written
descriptions together with photographs that are representative examples within the tolerance for each grade as
described in words.

It is applicable to hot rolling steel surfaces prepared for painting by methods such as blast-cleaning, hand and
power tool cleaning and flame cleaning, although these methods rarely lead to comparable results. Essentially, these
methods are intended for hot-rolled steel, but blast-cleaning methods, in particular, could also be used on cold
rolling steel of sufficient thickness to withstand any deformation caused by the impact of the abrasive or the effects
of power tool cleaning.

This part of ISO 8501 is applicable also to steel substrates that show residues of firmly adhering paint and other
foreign matter in addition to residual mill scale.
