Liquid inks, paints, varnish and surface coatings and other chemicals are supplied in "concentrated" form. The user needs to reduce or tally the thickness to their required level (by use of reducer or solvents) i.e to suit their requirement. Finally standardize these solutions by using B-4 Cup viscosity cup and measure the reading in seconds i.e time taken pass through the cup.

There has been a long need of applying PAINTS, PRINTING INKS, LACQUERS, ADHESIVES and other fluid or semi-viscous products in layers of predetermined thickness, onto various types of substrates, for the evaluation of colour hiding power, adhesion, flexibility, gloss, other properties etc. The K HAND COATER is a simple and practical piece of equipment for carrying out such tests, whenever and wherever needed. The K Hand coater consists of wire wound K Bars and the IMPRESSION BED. The K Bars are made of stainless steel, wound with stainless steel wire of selected diameters, to give predetermined wet film deposits, ranging from 10 microns to 100 microns. The K Bars are numbered and fitted with handles for easy identification. The IMPRESSION BED has a synthetic rubber surface of controlled shore hardness, and a clip to hold substrate in position.
