    shall be placed, coated side down, on the holder and the plate collar tightly
    bolted thereon. Care shall be taken to Insure that there is no leakage at the seal.
    A sufficient quantity of water shall be poured on the specimen to keep it completely
    covered under maximum pressure. Increase the pressure to 10 psl. Air bubbles on the
    surface of the specimen produced by air pressure closing the spaces between the cloth
    and the coating shall be removed. The pressure shall be held at 10 psi for 5 minutes.
    At the end of the 5 minute period, the specimen shall be examined for evidence of
    bubble formation indicating leakage. Unless otherwise specified, specimens from
