Marine Coating Sample Areas: Include Vertical and Horizontal Exposure

Horizontal and vertical areas can experience different deposition, water retention and cleaning access. A trial should represent the intended installation.

Updated · NANOLAB Knowledge

Practical approach

Select appropriate sample zones and record their orientation and maintenance. Compare like areas where possible.

A vertical cabin side may stay cleaner than a horizontal ledge during the same period.

Decision limits

Do not describe one successful sample as proof of identical results on every boat surface.
