ASTM D 6578 — Standard Practice For Determination of Graffiti Resistance PURPOSE Determines what types of graffiti can be removed without damaging the coating and with what cleaning agents. SIGNIFICANCE Graffiti resistance of a coating can determine its suitability for projects anywhere cleanability becomes an issue. Superior performance of coatings in this test can provide a tremendous sales opportunity as graffiti resistance can be an important factor in the sale.

ASTM D 4214 – Evaluating the Degree of Chalking • Chalking, n—the formation on a pigmented coating of a friable powder evolved from the film itself at or just beneath the surface, commonly caused by weathering, which may give the appearance of color fading.
ASTM D 4214 – Evaluating the Degree of Chalking • Photographic Chalking Reference Standards
