FAQs About YS3010 Portable Spectrophotometers
Yes, we warmly welcome and sincerely invite you or your team to visit our factory, we will help to arrange hotel and pick up you from airport.
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.
To keep a neutral background, helping to reduce color distortion and bias.
D65, TL84, A light, CWF, and UV are the most common standardized sources used for precise color matching.
Powder paint gloss levels are classified as:
● Flat: 0–10 GU
● Satin: 11–40 GU
● Semi-gloss: 41–70 GU
● Gloss: 71–85 GU
● High Gloss: 86+ GU
These are measured at a 60° angle for standardization.
A CAC is a professional light booth designed to provide standardized lighting conditions for visual color assessment. It includes multiple light sources like D65, TL84, and UV.
