7.5 Conclusion<br />
<strong>Visual</strong> testing is performed in accordance with applicable<br />
codes, standards, specifications and procedures. Chemical<br />
aids enhance the contrast of discontinuities making them<br />
easier to interpret and evaluate. This enhancement is<br />
attained by macroetching- a controlled chemical processing<br />
of the surface. Macroetching gives the optimum<br />
results on a properly cleaned and prepared surface. Chemicals<br />
for etching must be mixed, stored, handled and applied<br />
in strict accordance with safety regulations.''''<br />
