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.

Yes, we can offer Spectrodensitometer quality certification issued by our lab free of charge, or issued by third-party international inspection Organizations with extra charge, please contact us for confirmation.

A service is made up of tub replacement, light source recalibration, internal cleaning, verification of service and color certification retention so that all compliance color standards are retained. 

Once ignited, the gauge will select the correct substrate mode. The probe should be placed flat on the coated surface. The thickness of the coating will show on the screen. Measurements should be taken on different areas of the surface to ensure accuracy.

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.

The haze meter test assesses the degree of light scattering that occurs when light traverses a transparent or translucent material, producing a percentage that quantifies example or cloudiness.

The dry film thickness is assessed after the coating is cured, while the wet film thickness is obtained immediately after the coating is applied using a wet film comb gauge. Dry film measurement is critical to ensuring that the coating applied matches the standards expected in terms adherence and polish. 

Smooth and uniform surfaces with a large amount of reflected light directly result in high gloss. Some of the factors are the smoothness of the surface, the type of paint that is being used, the thickness of the coating, and curing. The lesser the surface irregularities, the greater the gloss.

Yes, 3nh has a wide sales and service network worldwide, we provide overseas service through our authorized distributors or service partners located in Western Europe, Northern and Southern America, and the Asia-Pacific. 

Our haze meters provide consistent and accurate data as per the requirements of ASTM D1003, ISO 13468, and JIS K7105. Due to the high precision, advanced optics, and automatic calibrations, haze meters produce repeatable and precise results for glass, films, and plastics while remaining simple to operate.
