MIL-PRF-3135H
4.4.1 Test panels and surface preparation. Unless otherwise specified (see 6.2), test panels shall be 150 by 150
by 3 millimeters (6 by 6 by 0.125 inch) cold rolled steel. Test panels shall be preconditioned by exposing the bare
metal panels to a salt fog spray for 100 hours in accordance with ASTM B117. Test panels shall then be wiped and
degreased in accordance with Method B, C, or D of ASTM D609. The degreased test panels shall be mechanically
cleaned in accordance with SSPC-SP 3 on both sides. For direct-to-metal underlayment systems (including all Type
III and Type IV products), the panels shall remain unprimed prior to application of the underlayment system. For
Type I or II underlayment systems requiring an anti-corrosive primer, the panels shall be primed with the primer
included by the manufacturer as part of the underlayment system, or with a primer conforming to MIL-DTL-
24441/20 or MIL-DTL-24441/29 if no specific primer is identified by the manufacturer.
4.5 Tests.
4.5.1 Toxicity. To determine conformance with the requirements of 3.5.1, the material shall be evaluated by
the Navy and Marine Corps Public Health Center using the administrative Health Hazard Assessment (HHA) (see
6.7).
4.5.1.1 Asbestos content. Asbestos content shall be determined on a dry film of the underlayment in
accordance with 29 CFR 1915.1001, Appendix K, Method ID-191, and the results shall be recorded as a percent by
weight of the dry underlayment film.
4.5.1.2 Soluble and total metal content. Soluble and total metal content, except tantalum and tungsten, shall be
determined on a dry paint film of the underlayment in accordance with 40 CFR 261, Appendix II, Method 1311, and
the appropriate test listed in Tables IV and V. Tantalum and tungsten soluble metal content and total metal content
shall be analyzed as specified in 4.5.1.2.1.
