Common questions
What clients ask before scheduling.
What is XRF lead testing?
X-ray fluorescence testing uses a specialized instrument to take direct readings from painted components. It can support efficient, component-level evaluation with minimal disturbance to the coating.
Is XRF testing non-destructive?
XRF readings are generally non-destructive to the tested paint surface. A project may still require targeted physical samples depending on the material, reading, purpose or applicable protocol.
