On this episode, the powdcast debuts a new segment: A Look in the Lab. We often talk about different test methods for measuring powder coating performance, so we’re going to dedicate a couple of minutes on each episode to explain how they’re done and what the results mean. CQPCR’s resident lab guy and audio wizard Nick breaks it down, starting this episode with the ASTM D3359 Crosshatch Adhesion and Tape Pull test. Check out our YouTube channel to see Shana demonstrating the process.
