10、ies,vinyl esters,polyesters,alkyds andurethanes,become more resistant to solvents as they cure.These coatings should reach specific levels of solvent resis-tance prior to being topcoated and prior to placing in service;the levels of solvent resistance necessary vary with the type ofcoating and the i
11、ntended service.Rubbing with a cloth satu-rated with the appropriate solvent is one way to determinewhen a specific level of solvent resistance is reached.However,the level of solvent resistance by itself does not indicate fullcure and some coatings become solvent resistant before theybecome suffici
12、ently cured for service.4.2 The time required to reach a specific level of solventresistance can be influenced by temperature,film thickness,airmovement and,for water-borne or water-reactive coatings,humidity.4.3 The test solvents effect upon the coating varies withcoating type and solvent used.The
