Scope

This Standard sets out a procedure for determining whether the relative dry hiding power of a given sample of paint applied at the specified spreading rate is less than, equal to, or greater than that of a mutually agreed-upon reference. An additional procedure is included which permits a quantitative determination of the relative dry hiding powers of two paints when they do not differ too greatly in this respect.
