The CED-coating process is widely used in industries like automotive, appliances, and heavy equipment, where Cathodic Electro Deposition (CED) is the standard primer process.
Most automotive and appliance parts get CED primer before the topcoat. Testing paints directly on bare steel or aluminium does not reflect real-world performance, so Coatxpert panels with CED primer mimic actual production conditions, ensuring that paints (base coat, top coat, clear coat) bond properly to CED primer. Coatxpert CED paint testing panels help detect compatibility issues between CED and the subsequent layer of coatings.

Why require Coatapert CED-coated paint testing panels?
- Provide accurate adhesion & corrosion test results.
- Ensure paints are qualified for OEM requirements.
- Reduce cost & time in product development.
- ISO, ASTM, and OEM standards often specify testing on CED-primed panels.
- Ensures uniformity when comparing results across suppliers.
- Paint systems are tested on CED-coated panels in Salt Spray (ASTM B117), Humidity, or Cyclic Corrosion Tests.
- Instead of testing on full parts, labs can use Coatxpert CED-coated paint testing panels.
- Saves time, material, and cost while giving reliable data.
