The question of determining equivalency and quality in selecting paint products usually is marketed subjectively using words, trade jargon, and data that is at best, vague and hard to define. This is because manufacturers want to protect trade secrets from other manufacturers. However, data is available to provide better and more definable measures of quality leading to better Quality Control.
This seminar will communicate a basic understanding of the 4 main components that make up every gallon of paint, and with that understanding, provide a tool to help tie numbers to quality for a comparative analysis.
