Expose the test panel under the test conditions shown in Table 21.
After finishing the test, clean the paint film with water, and remove the water using air-blow.
Cut the panel into two test specimens whose size are 100 mm by 150 mm shown in Fig. 6.
Polish half of one test specimen with luster wax (13) and evaluate the appearance, color
difference between before and after testing, gloss retention and adhesion on location not
polished by wax.
Conduct the heat cycle test under the test condition shown in Table 20 to another test
specimen and evaluate the appearance of the paint film.

Report: When the color difference, the gloss retention, and the adhesion after the
composition resins and pigments are exposed individually under the condition in
Table 21 are measured and they are reported before the start of mass
production, this item is acceptable by the report after the start of mass
production.
