For these requirements, alternative test methods may be used providing that: 1) The resulting values are comparable to those obtained using the standard methods, 2) and the repeatability of the alternative methods, determined in accordance with
ISO 5725-2:1994/Cor 1:2002, can be shown to be not less than that of the methods given in this standard. b) Test methods for the road marking assemblies requirements. For these requirements, alternative test methods are not allowed. If not specified in the relevant test method sampling shall be made according to FprEN 13459:2010. 5.2 Test methods for base road marking materials requirements (paint, thermoplastic and cold plastic) 5.2.1 Paint 5.2.1.1 Chromaticity co-ordinates and luminance factor: the x,y chromaticity co-ordinates and luminance factor
shall be measured as specified in Annex A. 5.2.1.2 Hiding power: it shall be tested in accordance with Annex B applying the paint at a ratio of 200g/m2 or the equivalent thickness. 5.2.1.3 Storage stability: each of the components of paint shall be tested separately in different containers. It shall be tested in accordance with Annex C. 5.2.1.4 UV ageing: the paint shall be applied as in A.3 to panels as described in A.2. The specimens shall be tested in accordance with EN ISO 4892-3:2006 for 168 h under lamp type II (UVB - 313) in cycles of 8 h of radiation at 60 °C ± 2 °C and 4 h of condensation at 50 °C ± 2 °C. 5.2.1.5 Bleed resistance: it shall be tested in accordance with Annex D. 5.2
