1 This International Standard specifies a method for deter-mining the resistance of paint films, paints systems and allied products to conditions of high humidity.
2 The method is applicable to coatings both on porous substrates such as wood, plaster and plasterboard, and on non-porous substrates such as metal. It provides an indication of performance likely to be obtained under severe conditions of
exposure where continuous condensation occurs on the surface.
3 The procedure may reveal failures of the coating (including blistering, staining, softening, wrinkling and embrittle-ment) and deterroratton of the substrate.
