Standard Test Method for Microscopic Measurement of Dry Film Thickness of Coatings on Wood Products

Importancia y uso:

5.1 As a base for calibration adjustment or accuracy verification of dry film coating thickness measuring instruments.

5.2 The dry film thickness of coatings on wood or wood-based products is specified in written product warranties for proper decorative and protective performance of coatings on wood or wood-based products.

5.3 The minimum and maximum dry film thickness of coatings is recommended by coating companies for satisfactory decorative and protective performance on wood or wood-based products.

5.4 The average dry film thickness of coatings on wood or wood-based material may be used by manufacturing companies to estimate the theoretical cost of applied coatings.

5.5 The ratio of minimum to maximum dry film thickness on textured products is used as an indication of coating uniformity.

5.6 Specific coated product requirements may dictate certain film thickness determinations to be made. Agreement between buyer and seller may be advisable to accommodate product needs relative to dry film thickness.
