1. Scope
1.1 This test method describes a procedure for determining the amount of releasable fibers transferred from a paint roller cover to a surface being painted. 1.2This method is applicable to pile fabric paint roller covers. 1.3The values stated are to be SI units and to be regarded as the standard. The inch pound values given in parentheses are provided for information only. 1.4Because both the application and panel evaluation are subjective, this test method should be used only for comparative testing within one facility using one operator for each set of applications, as the end result assigned by different facilities may not agree. 1.5 This method 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.
This will be used to help evaluate suppliers, mechanical failures, and complaints from the end user.
