Color matching tips for automotive refinish paints

The color matching of automotive refinish paint is based on the standard card made according to the “spectral color”, and the color to be matched from the color card can also be matched according to the standard coating sample provided by the user, and the specific steps are as follows:

(1) Accurately identify the color, first color according to the color plate, accurately identify its “hue”, “brightness” and “purity” under the conditions of standard light source, and determine the main color, background color and other necessary colors and adjust the “hue”, “brightness” and “purity” primary color pigments.

(2) Correct selection of pigments, ammonium requires the use of the tip type, variety and diluent and auxiliary materials of the color coating, and the selection of primary color pigments with excellent performance and economy is ready for use.

(3) Adjust the sample first and then a large number of dispensing, and in the absence of color matching equipment, the sample should be adjusted first to obtain the accuracy of the pigment ratio, so as to lay the foundation for a large number of modulation to reduce waste.

(4) The modulation steps and methods should be strictly based on the principle of primary and secondary, from shallow to deep, and fully stirred and miscible.

(5) The auxiliary materials should be added according to the corresponding varieties in strict proportion, and the appropriate amount should be added together with each other evenly when blending.

In particular, it should be pointed out that the toning paint is wet and the sample color is solid, so the color after the paint tone should be slightly lighter than the sample structure, not close, and not too dark. It should be slightly lighter than the original color, so that when the paint is dry, the same color will be the same, otherwise it will be too dark.
