Various final surface protective finishes are required for these materials. The final assembly shall have a protective finish lusterless black in color. No deviations to the drawing materials, treatment, or finish will be permitted. The contractor shall fabricate the item in accordance with U.S.G. drawings, inspect them in accordance with U.S.G. Quality Assurance Provisions (QAP), and package them in accordance with U.S.G. Special Packaging Instructions (SPI).
