Not applicable on leather and fabric surfaces. The standard is suitable for all types of surface finishes and veneers except melamine faced boards and HPL. Simulates measurable penetrating or deforming scratches.

The standard is suitable for all types of surfaces. It only simulates the first visible scratches that could be a change in gloss. The test is intended to be performed on a piece of finished furniture, but may be performed on test panels of the same material, finished in the same manner as the finished product, and large enough to meet the requirements of the test.

It is essential that the test be performed on unused surfaces.
