The Spray Test is a fairly simple test for assessing the resistance of fabrics or clothing leathers to wetting by water (water repellency). In this test water is sprayed against the taut surface of the test specimen under controlled conditions, producing a pattern of wetting whose size depends on the relative repellency of the sample. The pattern of wetting is compared against Standard Spray Test Ratings and the sample rated accordingly.
