The stone chip tester VAS 5102A has been developed by VW AG and allows the user to recognise whether paint damage is the result of a fault in the material/processing or whether it has been caused by excessive mechanical stress, for example stone chipping or scratching. The test is based on the simulation of the average stress encountered in everyday road traffic and caused by high-speed impact with low-mass objects, for example sand or grit.
Note:
1. The testing procedure is described in detail in the catalogue "Assessment of Vehicle Paintwork" (chapter 3)
2. The unit is subject to an annual inspection by the manufacturer. A charge will be levied for this service.
