Thickness

Non-destructive determination of dry paint coating thickness on ferrous and non-ferrous metal surfaces. Coating thickness measurements are performed in accordance with the requirements of the LST EN ISO 2178 standard.

Coating thickness measurements FILE

Measurements of fire-resistant plasters, fire-resistant panels and varnish film thickness are performed using destructive methods.

Determination of wet coating thickness using a stainless steel gauge. The determination of coating thickness is carried out in accordance with LST EN ISO 2808:2019 Paints and varnishes – Determination of film thickness (ISO 2808:2019).

Optical properties

The colour is determined according to the method EN ISO 18314-1:2018 Analytical colorimetry. Part 1: Practical colour measurement (ISO 18314-1:2015

Gloss is determined according to EN ISO 2813. Haze is determined according to EN ISO 13803.

Grip

The test determines the adhesion of paints, varnishes and other coatings to the underlying layer or substrate. The adhesion of the coating is determined in accordance with the requirements of the standard LST EN ISO 2409:2013 Paints and varnishes. Test by mesh notch method (ISO 2409:2013).
