BS EN ISO 8501-4:2020

Comprehensive Surface Preparation Standard

BS EN ISO 8501-4:2020 is the definitive standard for the visual assessment of surface cleanliness prior to the application of paints and related products. This British Standard, identical to ISO 8501-4:2020, provides a systematic approach to evaluating the cleanliness of steel surfaces, ensuring consistent quality and optimal coating performance.

Ensure Consistent Surface Quality

Proper surface preparation is critical for the long-term performance and durability of coatings, paints, and other finishes. BS EN ISO 8501-4:2020 establishes a common language and visual reference for assessing the degree of surface cleanliness, allowing for clear communication and alignment between manufacturers, applicators, and inspectors.The standard covers four distinct levels of surface cleanliness, ranging from heavily contaminated to near-white metal. By providing detailed visual representations and written descriptions, this standard enables objective evaluation and consistent quality control throughout the surface preparation process.
