The NF EN ISO 2808-2007 standard specifies methods for the determination of Paints and varnishes film thickness. The standard applies to the measurement of coatings on metal substrates, including wet-film and Dry-Film. Accuracy and repeatability under various coating processes and conditions is ensured through the use of different measurement devices and techniques such as brushes, casting knives, magnetic and electronic thickness gauges. The implementation of NF EN ISO 2808-2007 helps to assess the mass, durability and protective capacity of coatings and is of great significance for production and quality control in the Coatings industry.
