During the application of a coating, the presence of moisture in the environment or on the work surface, often results in a poor quality finish. Problems such as poor adhesion of the coating or premature corrosion of the substrate can occur.
To determine the likelihood of moisture affecting the quality of the finish, it is essential that the surface temperature, air temperature, relative humidity (RH) and dewpoint are all measured.
Climatic Condition Testing includes the following categories:
