This standard specifies a series of methods for measuring the thickness of coatings applied to substrates, including methods for measuring wet film thickness, dry film thickness, uncured powder coating thickness and paint film thickness on rough surfaces. When individual test method standards exist, this section refers directly to these standards, otherwise these test methods are described in detail. Appendix A gives an overview of the test methods, specifying the scope, existing standards and precision for each test method. This section also defines terms related to the measurement of paint film thickness.
