QuestionAnswer

A revision to a publication is normally issued when the changes exceed at least what percentage of the basic TO? 80 percent
What AFTO form is used to correct errors in TOs? 22
What word is added for emphasis to essential material that follows? Note
A substance that cannot be broken down by chemical means to form any other substance is called an element.
The smallest unit of an element is called an atom.
An atom that has gained or lost electrons and has acquired an electrical charge is called an ion.
What is displaced from the electrolyte and gathers on the surface of the cathode to form a thin, invisible film? Hydrogen
When the anode is smaller, in relation to the cathode in the electrochemical corrosion cell, the rate of corrosion is rapid and severe.
The electrode potential is an indication of the metal’s tendency to return to its natural state.
An electrolyte’s conductivity is determined by ions.
Concerning the corrosion of mild steel, when the pH becomes less than 4, the alkaline film on the metal is destroyed.
What do inert gases in a solution do to the rate of corrosion? Decrease it
What salt yields a soluble anodic product and an insoluble cathodic product? Zinc sulfate
On a polished surface, uniform surface corrosion is first seen as a general dulling of the surface.
Pitting corrosion of aluminum or magnesium is first noticed as white powdery deposits.
In an active-passive cell, the rate of corrosion is influenced by oxygen.
Exfoliation corrosion is the visible form of intergranular corrosion.
The QPL displays specific products that comply with military specifications.
The type of chemical remover to be used depends on the type of organic finish system to be removed.
When using general chemical removal procedures, at what strength should the remover be applied? Full strength
All chemical removers have a shelf life of six months.
In abrasive blasting, abrasive media is propelled with air pressure or water.
The paint edges around the chemically stripped areas are feathered in order to ensure a smooth, overlapping transition between the old and new paint surfaces.
Prepaint treatments shall be applied immediately after corrosion removal procedures.
The chemical conversion coated surface should dry a minimum of 2 hours.
CPCs are used to prevent corrosive materials from contacting and corroding bare metal surfaces.
The two categories that CPCs are separated into include water displacing and non-water displacing.
Low viscosity CPCs are best suited for what type of application? Spraying
What is used to determine the dimensions of a corrosion pit? Depth gauge
The depth gauge is not suitable for determining the depth of stress corrosion due to its relatively large size of indicator pin.
Which formula would you use to determine maximum corrosion pit depth? (A + B) ÷ 2 – C = Depth
What special requirement(s) must be met when mechanically removing coatings on steel and titanium alloy? Area must be well ventilated only
Which is used to remove paint from advanced composite surfaces? Abrasive blasting
When establishing a new PMB booth, who must approve the facility prior to use? System program director
Which PMB type is not authorized for use on aircraft? Type VI
When using the PMB cabinet blaster, check the media level prior to use.
What can happen if you dwell too long in the same spot when abrasive blasting? Stress concentrations can develop
What is your most important safety consideration when you’re using a portable power tool? Following standard operating procedures for each type of tool
Portable power tools used in areas where oil or grease is present must have special cords.
With a portable power tool, the function of a constant-pressure switch is to shut off the power when it is released.
Goggles and face shields are important when working with pneumatic tools.
If you do not use a diffuser nozzle, what air-pressure setting is used for shop cleaning? 15 psi
HVLP stand for high volume low pressure.
What is the maximum nozzle pressure of a HVLP spray gun? 10 psi
What type of spray gun is made with an external airtight container? Pressure-feed
What will happen to the paint coating if you hold a spray gun too close to the surface during painting operations? Runs and sags
When should you dismantle a spray gun? After each use
What is the minimum number of locations an aircraft must be grounded to before it can be electrostatically painted? 2
When painting fueled aircraft, the LEL should be from 0 to 20%
Hoses that are used with the air-assisted airless spray unit are lined with Teflon and wrapped with wire.
Air-assisted airless spray gun nozzles are often made of tungsten carbide.
When using an air-assisted airless spray gun, the spray pattern is produced by the milled slot in the face of the spray tip.
What is the most common cause of coating failure? Inadequate surface preparation
The probable cause of a protective coating spray pattern with a split spray is air and fluid feeds not properly balanced.
What is a common cause of streaking when spray painting Dirty air cap
What is a cause of orange peel when spray painting? Coating material to cold
Using an improper thinner causes pinhole cavities.
What coating system component would you add to paint to develop color and hiding power? Pigment
The liquid portion of the paint coating is the vehicle.
Which type of polyurethane coating is used on aerospace weapons systems? Type I
What type and class(es) of rain erosion coating dissipate static electricity? Type II, Class A & B
What type of walkway coating material is undesirable because of aerodynamic smoothness requirements? II
Aircraft painted at field level are limited to what painting operations? Maintenance only
Who augments the local paint scoring system when determining a paint schedule? MAJCOM & SPD
What is the standard exterior finish coating for Air Force aircraft? High solid polyurethane
What do you do with jelled or lumpy coating materials? Discard them at once
When using a #2 Zahn cup, how is the viscosity expressed? Seconds through the cup
Which cup is preferred for measuring the viscosity of high-solid coatings? #4 Ford cup
The general top coating sequence for small aircraft-tail toward hanger exhaust is? Forward fuselage, upper wings, lower wings, aft fuselage and tail section
When should specialty walkway coatings be applied to the aircraft? Before top coating
When mixing a Sempen™ paint applicator pen, the temperature should be room temperature.
Prior to use, how many seconds should a Sempen™ paint applicator be mixed? 60 seconds
What drying process cures by a chemical reaction? Polymerization
Rain erosion resistant tapes are designed to protect an aircraft from hail.
During rain erosion resistant tape application, what is the minimum recommended Fahrenheit temperature? 60°
Why are rented or polyester rags not used when applying protective boots and tapes? Rags may contaminate the area
Where are the USAF markings placed on aircraft? Upper left and lower right wings

What material is used to make computer-generated decals? Vinyl
After a decal is applied to an aircraft, what protects it against abrasion? Edge sealing compound.
A rapid way of preparing a sign is by stenciling.
