This standard describes procedures for testing coating water resistance in a 100% relative humidity environment. Moisture can cause coating degradation, so evaluating coating water resistance performance is essential to predict its actual use performance. Testing can reveal coating defects or insufficient surface preparation. This method is suitable for specification acceptance, quality control and research and development work. Test equipment can be small laboratory cabinets or large test chambers and can be used on specimens of various sizes. Test results should be interpreted with caution and are not equivalent to actual water exposure in the natural environment.
