This International Standard is one of a series of standards dealing with the sampling and testing of paints, varnishes,
printing inks and related products.
It specifies a method for determining the fineness of grind of paints, inks and related products by use of a suitable
gauge, graduated in micrometres.
It is applicable to all types of liquid paints and related products. Of the three gauges referred to in 4.1 the 100 um
gauge is suitable for general use, but the 50 um and especially the 25 um gauge will only provide reliable results in
the hands of skilled laboratory personnel. Particular caution is necessary in interpreting readings of less than 10 um.
