Stain Resistance
Test Method: The material was tested in accordance with W-102 (2019), WA Quality Standard for Wallcovering /
Alternate Constructions. A sample from an area with as many different printed colors as possible, as well as the
ground, is exposed to the following reagents: (1) Distilled water, 75 ± 5°F; (2) Distilled water, 120 ± 5°F; (3)
Ethyl alcohol; (4) Vinegar, 3 % acetic; (5) Alkali solution; (6) Hydrochloride, 5 %; (7) Soap solution; (8)
Detergent solution; (9) Pure orange juice; (10) Butter; (11) Catsup; and (12) Tea. Immediately after application,
the reagent is covered with a watch glass and allowed to stand for a period of 24 hours. After removal of the
watch glass, the wall covering is cleaned using, as appropriate, hot or cold distilled water, 50 % ethyl alcohol,
or with the specified detergent solution. The specimen shall show no evidence of appreciable change to the
decorative surface.
Material Tested: The client submitted a sample of non–vinyl wallcovering (polyester with woven backing)
identified as Terralon.
Test Data:
Reagent Rating Reagent Rating
(1) 75°F distilled water 5 (7) standard soap solution 5
(2) 120°F distilled water 5 (8) detergent solution 5
(3) 50% ethyl alcohol 5 (9) orange juice 5
(4) vinegar 5 (10) butter 5
(5) 1% NaOH solution 5 (11) catsup 5

Note: The rating system is based on the AATCC Nomenclature for Subjective Rating Processes in which a
rating of 5 = negligible or no staining, 4 = slight staining, 3 = noticeable staining, 2 = considerable staining, and
1 = severe staining. A rating of less than 4 is considered “appreciable” in relation to severity of change.
Test Result: The material tested, Terralon, meets Type II requirements for stain resistance in accordance with
W-102 (2019). Overall classification can not be based on a single performance property.
