WFT Calculations WFT = 100 X DFT

VS

1. What WFT would need to be applied to give a DFT of 45µm using a paint
of 56% VS
100 X 45 = 80.36µm
56

2. What WFT would need to be applied to give a DFT of 60µm using a paint
of 40% VS
100 X 60 = 150µm
40

3. A paint of 38% VS was used to give a DFT of 45µm. What would be the WFT
100 X 45 = 118.42µm
38

4. A DFT of 55µm was obtained from a paint of 55% VS. What was the applied
WFT
100 X 55 = 100µm
55

5. What WFT would be applied to leave a DFT of 65µm using a paint of 49% VS
100 X 65 = 132.65µm
49
