9、o sections arescrubbed simultaneously to produce essentially identical abra-sion experiences and the amount of erosion loss in each sectiondetermined from the panel weights before and after scrubbing.3.2 The scrub resistance on a dry-film basis is calculated asthe percent ratio of the weight loss of
10、 the calibration panel tothat of the test panel.From that value,scrub resistance iscalculated on the basis of both dry-and wet-film volume.4.Significance and Use4.1 Interior paint films often become soiled,especially neardoorways,windows,and play areas,and frequently need to becleaned by scrubbing.T
