5.3 Specimen
The specimens must be removed from the components under test and should be of a shape and size that ensures plane contact with the specimen holder and the supporting table of the respective spectrophotometer. The test surface must be plane parallel with the contact surface.
5.4 Specimen preparation
The surface of the specimens must be homogeneous and must have no foreign matter. Specimens should only be handled with clean, grease-free hands.
5.5 Conditioning
The specimens must be conditioned for a minimum of 48 h in a standard climate according to DIN 50 014-23/50-2.
5.6 Procedure
The test is performed at (23 ± 5)° C.
A scratching tool is used to scratch a grid (crosscut grid) of at least (40 x 40) mm. See Figure 3. Testing parameters:
-Contact force F = 5 N and 10 N (for unpainted components; F is dependent on
the position in the vehicle and the component specifications)
F = 10 N (for painted components)
-Scratching speed v = 1,000 mm/min
-Grid spacing 2 mm
-Scratching gouge? 1 mm (e.g. engraving tip from the 318 hardness testing device
from Erichsen)

5.7 Evaluation
The measured values for dL*, da*, db* and dE* of the unscratched area from the scratched area, determined using colorimetry, are used for evaluation (measured value = mean of at least 5 indi-vidual measurements).
Measuring method acc. to DIN 5033-4
Color change acc. to DIN 6174
Illuminant: D65 / 10°
Measuring field diameter: ≥ 7 mm
In addition, a test of the measured values for plausibility of the optical impression must be per-formed (even when the measurements indicate an evaluation of OK).
