SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D344
1. Scope
1.1 This test method provides for the qualitative and quantitative visual determination of the hiding power of a test paint relative to that of a comparison paint.
1.2 This test method describes only a brushout application procedure in specific detail, but its concepts are valid for other methods of application as well.
1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.4 This standard 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.
