(2) coating thickness at measuring point The coating thickness at only SGermessuring point measured tccording to JIS: H 8680, (3) minimum coating thickness The minimum value of coating thickness aT mGssurIng palnts of several measured portions. (4) mean coating thickness The mean value of coating thickness at inessuring points of Several measured portions.2 H 8601-1992 (5) contamination resistance The resistance against contamination. It is expressed by the degree of sealing. The contamination degree of test piece according (6) contamination degree fo the dye spot teat specified in 3.1 (Dye spot test) of JIS H 8683 It is contrasted with the contamination degree scale. 3.
