    Requirement

  2. 02

    Evaluation

  3. 03

    Specification

  4. 04

    Sample

  5. 05

    Factory Trial

  6. 06

    Production

A coating system should be evaluated against the actual substrate, finish target, application process, and production conditions rather than selected by product name alone.
