4.1 Pressure Sensitive Adhesion Tape
4.1
It is extremely important that the tape adhesive

has a peel strength value of at least 4.0 N/cm.
Weaker adhesives will reduce the severity of
the test results. The following describes the

5.1 Summary of Test Method
5.1
This test method shall be used for evaluating

the tape adhesion properties of painted and
plated substrates.
5.2 Test Specimen Preparation
5.2
5.2.1 Unless otherwise specified, test

specimens shall be taken from parts at least
24 hours after production. Before testing, the
test specimens shall be conditioned for more
than 24 hours at standard laboratory
conditions as established in GMW3221-C.

5.3.1.2
5.3.1.3 Select a representative area or an area

suspected of having poor film adhesion on the
paint surface to be tested. Do not select
sagged, solvent popped or other obviously
defective areas as these defects should be
rated separately.
5.3.1.3
5.3.1.4 Make the crosshatch cut with the sharp

cutting tool. The number of lines and spacing
between lines shall depend upon the coating
film thickness as shown in table 1. Make all
cuts about 20mm long. Cut through the film to
the substrate in one steady motion using just
enough pressure on the cutting tool to have
the cutting edge reach the substrate. When
making successive single cuts with the aid of a
guide, place the guide on the uncut area.
Make an equivalent number of cuts
perpendicular to, and centered on, the original
cuts.
Avoid cutting so deeply that the
substrate is displaced.

5.3.2.3
5.3.2.4 With a sharp pointed razor knife make

a cross-cut (X) consisting of 2 bisecting lines
each approximately 75mm long through the
paint film to the substrate (See Figure 2). Use
sharp blades, as dull blades tend to cause
lower ratings. When cutting, hold knife
perpendicular to the surface and avoid any
side motion. For relatively soft substrates,
such as plastics, avoid cutting so deeply that
the substrate is displaced.
