Standard Guide for Testing Wood Furniture Lacquers (Withdrawn 2003)
SCOPE
1.1 This Guide covers the evaluation of gloss or flatted, unpigmented lacquers designed for use on wood substrates. This Guide is to be used in conjunction with Test Methods D333. Also included are several methods of special relevance to the application of lacquer on wood. The selection of the tests to be used for any given product or system must be governed by experience and by the requirements agreed upon by the producer and user.
1.2 The tests on films apply to those films applied in sufficient quantity to form a continuous film. It is recommended that reports include the thickness of the film under test.
1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
