    This document provides standards for metal surface preparation prior to phosphate coating and painting. It specifies that surfaces must be free of contamination, have appropriate texture for the substrate, and any oils, coatings, or treatments must be compatible with the cleaning and phosphate coating processes. The surface preparation requirements are part of ensuring the overall coating system meets its performance needs.
