Dry film thickness<br />
The dry film thickness of each coating was<br />
determined using a Fischer Dualscope MP4C probe<br />
as described previously. All surface treatments<br />
were applied so that they attained 20-25 microns by<br />
adjusting the number of applications or concentration<br />
of material applied (table 3). Coatings of less than<br />
25 microns are known to offer poor protection to car<br />
bodies exposed to water, oxygen, salt and abrasion<br />
during their lifetimes [10]. However, because a<br />
single application of the waxes produced dry films<br />

thinner than one micron, it was impractical and time<br />
consuming to apply them thicker than 20 microns.<br />
Appearance<br />
Surface treatments were either colourless and<br />
transparent, gold and transparent or black and<br />
opaque (table 3, figure 2 and figure 3). All the goldcoloured<br />
coatings contained corrosion inhibitors<br />
which often impart a brown colouration. Treatments<br />
based on waxes did not form cohesive films and<br />
brushstrokes and crazing were visible with the naked<br />
eye (figure 4). The wetting agent, perfluorodecyl<br />
iodide, imparted a milkiness to Paraloid B72 on<br />
drying which indicated that they were poorly<br />
compatible. Vp CI-386 acrylic primer/topcoat,<br />
