We are using a surface treatment system in which the end result is the polarization of the surface of PP and other TPO materials. Is there a way to show visually that the surface is now polar?
 
Measure the wetting of the surface by different fluids, polar and non-polar, before and after. The polar fluids should have a change in the angle of conact and the non-polar shouldn't.

Corrosion never sleeps, but it can be managed.
