The standard specifies procedures for outdoor exposure testing of Wood Coatings, aimed at assessing the durability of Coatings under different environment conditions. Coatings durability can vary significantly from location to location due to factors such as solar radiation, Humidity, temperature and contaminants, so it is recommended that tests be conducted under multiple climate conditions. The standard states that a single test does not predict the long-term degradation rate of a material, and that years of sexual repeability exposure are required to obtain "average" results. At least three sexual repeability tests are recommended to ensure Reliability of results.
