Techniques for examination and measurement of the anchor pattern profile of cleaned surfaces are described. Effects of various cleaning techniques on surface roughness were measured. Blast cleaning with high density, large particles produced excessively rough surfaces. Paint tests were made on steel with a wide range of anchor patterns. Concludes that height of the anchor pattern profile has a limited effect upon corrosion protection afforded by paints in atmospheric exposure. 2.3.7
