10、ifferent paints toerosion when repeatedly scrubbed during the life of the paint.4.2 Test Method D4213 is a similar scrub resistance testusing a weight-loss technique and reporting volumetric filmerosion rates.4.3 Test Method A measures scrub resistance by the tradi-tional cycles-to-failure concept.P
