Colour Matching Test for Wall Paints Shade Cards can earn Customer Satisfaction

Wall painting is one of the most profit-earning markets responsible for the aesthetical making of houses, offices or any institutions. The right shade can enormously change the look of an outlet and can even help in bringing in more consumers. However choosing a shade of your choice from the shade card to getting the wall painted, many consumers remain unsatisfied with the mismatched colours of the wall. This happens because of the poor quality of colour printed on the shade card which shows different appearances under different light.

The theory of changing colours under changing lights

Colours can appear completely distinct based on the spectral composition of the source of light under which we are watching the shade. For instance, red printed colour when viewed under the artificial light of a room may appear different from the situation when it’s viewed in broad daylight. The colour intensity and its value get affected by the type and amount of light. For, instance, in low light conditions, the colours may appear darker having lower intensity. With the increasing amount of light, the value reduces, and the intensity rises until the user reaches its actual colour.

This is why it’s important that before the printing initiates for the shade cards, a sample must be tested under standard light sources so that it can be known before that the colour which is printed under a particular term has the same appearance under a defined light source everywhere. This way the manufacturer will never fail to please their clients and can earn consumer satisfaction.
