Please use this performance rating as a guide in selecting product for
particular end use areas. This is only a guide, not a list of
certified ratings. The assigned performance rating is based on a face
weight, fiber content, surface construction, dye method, and manufacturer's
specifications. It is intended to assist you in qualifying where and how a
product will be used, and what the reasonable performance expectations
should be allowing for proper installation and maintenance. Local use
conditions and color selection can affect appearance and performance. |
