Astm paint adhesion test tape.
This method assesses the adhesion of either one or multiple coatings on a smooth surface by applying tensile stress rather than shear stress measured in the previous two tests from a dolly to the surface the load is slowly increased until the dolly along with the adhesive layers is removed.
Pressure sensitive tape is applied and removed over cuts made in the coating.
