1、Designation: F502 08 (Reapproved 2013)Standard Test Method forEffects of Cleaning and Chemical Maintenance Materials onPainted Aircraft Surfaces1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F502; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of originaladoption or, in th
2、e case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A superscriptepsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1
3、This test method covers determination of the effects ofcleaning solutions and liquid cleaner concentrates on paintedaircraft surfaces (Note 1). Streaking, discoloration, and blister-ing may be determined visually. Softening is determined witha series of specially prepared pencils wherein determinati
4、on ofthe softest pencil to rupture the paint film is made.NOTE 1This test method is applicable to any paint film that is exposedto cleaning materials. MIL-PRF-85285 has been selected as a basicexample. When other paint finishes are used, refer to the applicablematerial specification for panel prepar
5、ation and system curing prior totesting.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information onlyand are not considered standard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address
6、 all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Rinse thesurface with distilled water and coat with a conversion coatingmaterial conforming to MIL-DTL-81706, Class 1A. Apply onecoat of
18、MIL-PRF-23377 epoxy primer, 0.6 to 0.8 mil (0.015 to0.020 mm) and allow to dry1hatroom temperature. Apply amist coat of the designated polyurethane and allow to dry 30min at room temperature. Apply the finish coat in threeapplications of 0.4 to 0.6 mil (0.010 to 0.015 mm), allowing a1-h drying time
19、at room temperature between each coat. Allowthe painted panels to dry four days at room temperature; thenbake for 24 h at 180F (82C) or allow panels to air dry anadditional three to ten days at room temperature. No greaterthan one pencil hardness difference between coated panelsprepared from the sam
20、e batch of paint at the same time shall bepermitted.7.3 Procedure:7.3.1 Place the test panels in a horizontal position in an ovenmaintained at 100 6 5F (38 6 2C). Apply the test solutionto approximately one half the area of each panel and allow toremain on the panels for 30 min. Then remove the pane
21、ls fromthe oven and rinse with distilled or deionized water and allowto air dry for 24 h. Examine for streaking, discoloration, orblistering of the finish.7.3.2 Determine the hardness of the treated and untreatedareas in the following manner: Hold pencils of decreasinghardness by hand at a 45 angle
22、(see Fig. 1) and push across thepaint film with a firm uniform pressure until a pencil is foundthat will not cut the film but will leave a black mark on thesurface, whereas the next hardest pencil will cut through thefilm without leaving a black mark. The hardness number of thepencil that cuts the f
23、ilm shall express film hardness. Make atleast three determinations on both exposed and unexposedportions of the coated panel.8. Report8.1 The report shall include the following:8.1.1 The appearance of the panels after exposure,8.1.2 The pencil hardness required to rupture the paint filmon the unexpo
24、sed portion of the panel, and8.1.3 The pencil hardness required to rupture the paint filmon the exposed portion of the panel.9.
