Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Prepare for work
  • Workplace information, including materials application and safety information, material safety data sheets, is used to inform work practices
  • Characteristics of the surface and the required surface coating are identified from work orders or instructions
  • Processing and application techniques, time and safety requirements are identified and used for work planning
  • OHS requirements, including ventilation requirements and personal protection needs, are observed throughout the work
  • Tools, equipment and accessories are identified and checked for safe and effective operation for the surface coating task
       
Element: Repair surfaces
  • Surfaces are checked for contamination and correct preparation according to workplace procedures and standards
  • Products with surface or other faults are identified and assessed
  • Materials required for repair are selected and prepared
  • Repairs are completed to manufacturers' standards and/or industry practices
       
Element: Prepare for application of materials
  • Techniques for hand application of materials are identified and selected
  • Coating materials required are identified and prepared for the surface coating task
  • Trial applications of surface materials are made to check equipment operation, materials consistency and specified surface finish
  • Faults are identified and workplace procedures for rectification are followed
       
Element: Apply surface coating
  • Surface coatings are applied according to job instructions, material manufacturers' specifications and workplace procedures
  • Coated products are inspected and approved for suitability for further processing
  • Products which do not meet quality specifications are recoated or tagged for further investigation
       
Element: Clean work area and maintain equipment
  • Equipment used is cleaned and inspected for serviceable condition and stored appropriately
  • Unserviceable equipment is tagged, faults are identified and appropriate personnel are informed
  • Work area, including painting locations, is cleaned and returned to approved condition
  • Workplace records are completed
       


Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Critical Aspects of Evidence

Interpret work order and locate and apply relevant information

Apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment

Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection practices to:

minimise the risk of injury to self and others

prevent damage to goods, equipment and products

maintain required production output and product quality

Repair and finish a minimum of four damaged surfaces, including:

a strip off and re-finish

two touch ups involving different repair techniques

with only one being a metal surface

Maintain application equipment

Work effectively with others

Modify activities to cater for variations in workplace contexts and environment

Resource Implications

Surface coating application equipment, coatings, other consumables, and materials to be repaired.

Method of Assessment

Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.

Assessment should be by direct observation of tasks and questioning on underpinning knowledge.

Assessment should be conducted over time and will generally be in conjunction with assessment of other relevant units of competency.

Context of Assessment

Assessment may occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.

Submission Requirements

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assignment, checklist) and due date here

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Required skills

collect, organise and understand information related to coating materials, cleaning materials, work orders and safety procedures

communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications, coordination of work with site supervisor, other workers and customers, and the reporting of work outcomes and problems

plan and organise activities including the preparation and layout of the worksite and the obtaining of coating equipment and materials to avoid any back tracking, work flow interruptions or wastage

work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise workflow and productivity

use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate area, estimate paint requirements and estimate material requirements

use pre-checking and inspection techniques to anticipate coating problems, avoid re-working and wastage

use the limited workplace technology related to coating including tools, equipment and measuring devices

Required knowledge

repair and touch up techniques

decontamination materials, techniques and safety requirements

identification of application techniques

characteristics of coatings and base materials in terms of toxicity, reactivity, flammability, required viscosity and re-coatability

the methods to prevent contamination of surfaces during and after surface coating

workflow in relation to the application of surface coatings

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Unit context

OHS requirements include legislation, building codes, material safety management systems, hazardous substances and dangerous goods code and local safe operating procedures

Work is carried out in accordance with legislative obligations, environmental legislation, relevant health regulations, manual handling procedures and organisation insurance requirements

Work requires individuals to demonstrate some discretion, judgement and problem solving skills in the application of surface coatings

Techniques are to include:

decontamination and repair

stripping

wash off

stoppings

(epoxy

button lac

water putty

wax)

plugs and refinishing

Surface faults may include:

machine marks

bruising

pencil marks

grease

cross-sanding marks

scratches

glue marks

dirt marks

insect and termite holes

holes

knots

blisters

rubber marks

burns or tears

ropiness and foreign matter in the polish

Surfaces may include but are not limited to:

solid timber

manufactured board

metal

Tools and equipment may include, but are not limited to:

brushes

rollers

soup rubbers

paint trays

power agitators

sanders

liquid containers

scrapers

quirk sticks

sandpapers

Workplace instructions, including job sheets, plans, drawings and designs

Workplace procedures relating to reporting and communications

Manufacturer instructions for the use of equipment and materials

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
