Paint pe
36、rformance is a function of material selection, surface preparation, and paint application. For established coatings and coating lines, this may permit a reduced test schedule to validate compliance to this specification. Use table 1 to determine the recommended test plan depending on the situation.
37、4.3 APPROVAL OF MATERIALS Suppliers desiring approval of their materials shall first obtain an expression of interest from Purchasing, Design or Product Development, and Materials Engineering. The supplier shall submit a completed copy of their laboratory test reports, signed by a qualified and auth
38、orized representative of the test facility, demonstrating full compliance with all the requirements of the Material Specification. Tested material samples must be available for review upon request and kept for a minimum of one year. Upon request, the supplier will review the associated quality contr
39、ol documents (Process Failure Mode and Effects Analysis, Control Plans, Certification testing) with Ford.
