When Paint Passes Color QC but Fails in Application
Paint QC can approve a batch that still behaves badly on the substrate. A color reading says the prepared sample matched the standard under controlled conditions. It does not prove that pigment particles stayed well dispersed, that the film will hide properly, or that the product will remain stable in the container. Specks, gloss [...]
