Stone Chip Tester -VAS5102A-

Product Description

The Stone Chip Tester -VAS5102A- is a proprietary tool of Volkswagen AG. It can identify whether chipped paint is the result of a material flaw/workmanship fault or whether it is the result of excess mechanical stress such as stone impacts or scratches. The test is based upon a simulation of the average amount of stress caused by objects (high-speed, low-mass sand/gravel) during a traffic collision.

Note

The test procedure is described at length in the catalog "Analyzing Vehicle Paintwork".

The instrument is subject to a yearly maintenance check by the manufacturer at the owner's expense.
