  • Apply paint to black plastic panel with a wet film thickness of 3.5 mils and width of 150 mm
  • Apply coating in 3-4s to prevent pin holes/holidays and cure for 7 days

 

Procedure:

  • Measure reflectance CIE-Y (R1) of coating on last day of drying
  • Apply soilants/stains in straight pairs of lines perpendicular
  • Soak sponge in water and squeeze
  • Apply liquid or powder cleaner
  • Scrub for max. 100 cycles
  • Measure reflectance CIE-Y (R2) of the soiled and washed area
  • Calculate the reflectance recovery in percent as R2/R1 x 100
