The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies performs xenon arc light and water exposure testing for automotive coatings in compliance with the ASTM D7869 testing standard.
Subtropical Climate Exposure Testing
ASTM D7869 establishes the criteria for performing testing on automotive paints and coatings to ensure their resilience in subtropical climates, also referred to as Florida Exposure Testing. ATS performs several additional types of environmental testing services that fall under subtropical exposure testing as well, including but not limited to:

Under Glass Testing: elemental exposure testing for interior trim and fabric-based materials.

Salt Spray Testing: a popular testing method to verify a component’s resistance to corrosion.

Humidity Testing: electrical system and component testing to assess functionality under humid conditions.

Rainfall Testing: water ingress and automotive seal testing.

UV Radiation Testing: this method tests paint, coating, plastic, and other materials’ ability to withstand prolonged exposure to the sun.

Direct Exposure Testing: testing a vehicular component’s resilience during direct exposure to various elements.
