Coated and uncoated surfaces need to be tested for resistance to abrasion caused by a brush, sponge, scouring pad, sand paper, and other means. Abrasion resistance can be tested by wet abrasion methods using scrub media or cleaning solutions. The most common applications are testing the scrub resistance of interior wall paints, floor tiles, shower stalls, and furniture surfaces. The abrasion tester can examine the washability of a coated surface for the removal of stains. Detergents and cleaning solutions can be tested and evaluated in a reproducible manner.

A comprehensive guide to Abrasion Resistance
We are confronted with abrasion resistance every day. Whether it is your shiny new bathroom floor that is beginning to fade or a scratch on the case of your new phone or car. Abrasion can ruin a day in a moment. So how do we test and improve our coatings on these appliances to mitigate the chance of this happening? In this article we will discuss what abrasion resistance is, how it relates to other physical properties, and what tools and methods are needed to measure it.
