This standard describes the method used by the mechanized tape test to assess the adhesion of metallic and inorganic coatings. The test evaluates the adhesion of coatings by applying pressure-sensitive tape to the surface of the coating and then removing the tape evenly. The method is suitable for the evaluation of the adhesion of different surface preparations, but not for testing coatings on low adhesion levels or polymer substrates. The test results provide a quantitative evaluation of the adhesion of coatings.
