INSPECTION SYSTEM

Inspection is performed to customer specification or applicable MIL-SPEC, in accordance with MIL-I-45208

1. Visual inspection of all coated surfaces.
2. Non-destructive measurement of dry film thicknesses, using Eddy Current Induction measurement of coating thickness on aluminum and other non-ferrous substrates, or a magnetic (clicker) gauge for measurement of non-magnetic coatings on steel substrate.
3. Cross-hatch tape test for adhesion.
4. Solvent rub test for cure of the coating.
5. Salt spray testing per ASTM-B117. Mil-Spec test requirement is typically 336 hours exposure to 5% salt fog with no blistering, cracking or delaminating of film. No rust creepage at scribe and no rusting at edges can occur within the prescribed test hours.
