How Do You Test Corrosion Resistance Before Shipment?

How Do You Test Corrosion Resistance Before Shipment?

Marketing claims about "corrosion-resistant" coatings are easy to make and hard to verify — so for coastal and marine projects, we recommend relying on test data rather than product descriptions alone.

Our Testing Process

We run salt spray tests (per ASTM B117) on coated samples to simulate long-term exposure to salt air, and we check coating adhesion and thickness with a cross-hatch test and a coating thickness gauge to confirm the coating meets the specified micron thickness.

What We Recommend You Request

For coastal and marine projects, we recommend requesting the salt spray test report together with your order — this single document gives a far more reliable picture of real-world durability than any general product description.

Ask for test reports when quoting coastal projects on our LED Street Light or LED Flood Light ranges.
