35 Testing Procedures TESTING PROGRAM The VINCe. Test program must be followed as per the Test Requirement Chart in the VINCe. Manual. Fabric Stage: Full Test Package is to be completed on one color only. Additional Colors Test Package is to be completed on all additional colors. Garment Stage: Garment Test Package is to be tested on one color only. Color blocked garments must submit panels sewn together for additional colors. Trim Stage: Trims are tested as raw materials or Trims are tested as part of garment test package Composite osite Testing: Composite Testing is allowed up to 3 colors/substrates. If Composite testing results are INTERIM FAIL, individual testing is to be performed automatically to identify which particular color/substrate is Fail. When the Individual Lead in Paint and Substrate Requirements are 90ppm and 100 ppm respectively, the composite testing requirements per CPSC shall be as follows (Calculation is based upon Smallest Sample Weight) For 2-in-1 Composite Lead in Paint Lead in Substrate Conclusion < 72 ppm < 80 ppm Pass 72 ppm Results < 180 ppm 80 ppm Results < 200 ppm Interim Fail 180 ppm 200 ppm Fail For 3-in-1 Composite Lead in Paint Lead in Substrate Conclusion < 72 ppm < 80 ppm Pass 72 ppm Results < 270 ppm 80 ppm Results < 300 ppm Interim Fail 270 ppm 300 ppm Fail PASS: Clear pass for all parts in the composite mix The requirements are slightly lower to cover the margin of error possible when mixing parts for a single test. INTERIM FAIL: Results in this range are most likely a fail for all parts, but individual part re-testing can be requested to confirm if any of the individual parts pass. FAIL: Clear fail for all parts in the composite mix Based on the math, all parts would be over the allowable individual limits. June 5, 2018 Page 35 of 107
