This document specifies a method for determining, using a pointed stylus loaded with a continuously increasing load, the scratch resistance of a single coating of a paint, varnish or related product, or the upper layer of a multicoat system.
This test has been found to be useful in comparing the scratch resistance of different coatings. It is most useful in providing relative ratings for a series of coated panels exhibiting significant differences in scratch resistance.Cross References:ISO 2808ISO 1513ISO 3270ISO 15528ISO 4618ISO 1514ISO 12137ISO 1518-1All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
