The five common gloss levels are:
1. Flat/Matte (0–10 GU)
2. Eggshell (10–25 GU)
3. Satin (26–40 GU)
4. Semi-gloss (41–70 GU)
High Gloss (71–100+ GU)
These levels vary slightly depending on industry and standards used.
Yes. However, for LED retrofitting to meet industry standards, color- calibrated LED modules must be used for accurate color rendering. We usually do not recommend customers to modify it themselves, as this can affect the accuracy of the color and cause unnecessary losses
Of course! Many portable, battery operated, and lightweight coating thickness gauges are available for on-site and field inspections. They provide quick and accurate results and portable gauges are ideal for construction, automotive, and industrial environments.
Because of its unmatched precision, ease of use, adherence to global standards, and consistent long-term reliability.
Gloss paint can be identified by visual inspection and using a gloss meter. The high gloss paints are shiny and reflective like a mirror, satin or eggshell has a soft sheen, whereas the matte paint is non-reflective with very little or no reflection.
You should not attempt measuring on surfaces that are dirty, oily, or rough, as these surfaces will not provide an accurate reading. Always calibrate the paint thickness tester and make sure to select the proper probe for the substrate as well. Proper execution will bring about consistency as well as trustworthiness to the readings.
A haze meter measures the light. It quantifies the measure of transmitted light across a material and the degree of scattered and diffused light.
A spectrophotometer illuminates a sample with light or passes light through it and records the reflected or transmitted light over the wavelength range. It transforms this data into color coordinates (such as L*a*b*), allowing accurate color assessment as well as color comparison to standards.
An 80 gloss surface will reflect less light as compared to a 100 gloss surface. Both are said to be high gloss, although 100 GU (or higher) reflects almost as much as a mirror. The distinction can be slight in graphic terms, but major in specific uses.
Set the 3nh booth in a tidy, stable position with neutral, clean surroundings, adequate airflow, and a reliable power source, and position it away from direct sunlight or mirrors.
