10、y of Practices4.1 Rolls of finished or coated fabric are examined forimperfections as the fabric traverses an inspection station.They are graded per Tables Tables 1-5.4.2 Cut pieces are inspected individually for imperfections.Cut pieces containing imperfections are culled from use forlater review.5
