    The document outlines detailed specifications for airfield pavement marking, including materials, surface preparation, and application procedures. It specifies the use of FS TT-P-1952 paint and FS TT-B-1325, Type I, Gradation A reflective media. Key steps include allowing new pavement to cure for at least 30 days, thorough cleaning to remove dirt, rubber, and existing coatings, and using water blasting or grinding for surface preparation. Shot blasting is explicitly prohibited on airfield pavements due to FOD risk. Oil-soaked areas must be degreased and sealed. Painting requires dry pavement, tested using the "plastic wrap method," and must be applied pneumatically with approved equipment. Reflective media must be applied immediately after paint, ensuring even distribution. Strict adherence to drying times and inspection of materials at the job site are mandatory to ensure compliance and prevent issues like foreign object damage to aircraft or paint discoloration.
