Dry and Wet Rubbing Color Fastness Tester

The dry and wet rubbing color fastness tester uses a motor to drive the friction head to reciprocally rub the sample. During wet testing, distilled water is used to moisten the friction cloth. It simulates color transfer caused by daily friction and is used to evaluate the color fastness performance of textiles, paper, and other materials.
