Color determination of paint with standard Color Charts (color samples)

In the actual application of the factory, the color samples of the existing products in the factory are used as the color standard.

For example, the same color standard can be applied separately to oil-based paints, nitro enamel, Griffith enamel, etc. Such standards are not very suitable, because their color and shade will change quickly. The author and B.JI. Rubinstein, in order to standardize the color paint produced in industry, once worked out a set of standard Color Charts.

All colors can be divided into ten categories: the first category one, red (from No. 1 to No. 99); the second category one color (from No. 100 to No. 199); the third category one yellow (from No. 200 to No. 299) ;4th class—green (from 300 to 399); fifth class—blue (from 400 to 499); sixth class—purple (from 500 to .599); seventh class— Brown (from No. 600 to No. 699); the eighth category - protective color (from No. 700 to 799); the ninth category - white, gray and black and other colors (from No. 800 to 899); the tenth category - auxiliary color One light yellow color, stained line color, political rose color, ivory color, etc. (from 900 to 999).

Each color is coded with a certain number, and according to the number, it can be determined which category the color should be classified into.

Compare the tested color sample with the standard to measure its color.

Up to now, the standard Color Chart includes more than 150 colors, which can summarize all the colors in industrially produced paints.

The original missing standards can be gradually added to the card, and these successively added standards can be programmed with sequential numbers in categories that match their colors.

The standard color is painted on a colorless: light-resistant and thick 0.01 mm thick acid film, and it is installed on a thick paper card.

On each card there are two standards of the same color, one of which is glossy and the other is matte, so that it is possible to compare the colors of swatches which differ in gloss.
