Description

1. Purpose and Scope

1.1 This test method is used to determine the resistance to staining by acid food colors on pile floor coverings.

After allowing the stained specimen to remain at controlled conditions for 24 plus or minus 4 h, it is rinsed in water to remove all unused FD&C Red 40 dye.
