The Leveling Tester is designed to determine the relative leveling of liquid coating materials before curing in the laboratory. (Coating materials have to eliminate surface defects during curing) . It complies with ASTM D2801-1994 (BGD 226/1) and NYPC(BGD 226/2) . It is made from stainless steel with a straight scraper fitted with 5 pairs of notches of increasing depth from 100~1000μm or 250~4000μm Once the drawdown has been made on a horizontal, firm surface, leave the coating to cure. Once the coating is dry, identify the thickness at which the pair of film stripes merge.
