Test Principle
The basic principle is to cut through the coating with
a series of several cuts at right angles in a defined
manner. The square pattern that is obtained can be
evaluated visually by examining the way in which the
coating has broken away from the base material
(along the cutting edges and/or complete squares),
and this can be compared with schematic
representations in the standard.
The result will be furnished with a judgement scale’s
code (e.g. with the aid of the evaluation table in
accordance with EN ISO 2409)
