Viewing
Many
possible
panel
positions
“Face”
“Flash”“Flop”
This is the
specular
reflection
when you are
looking at the
“Face”.As you can see, in the visual
situation both the angle of
incident light and the angle of
view change based on how you
hold the panels. With a multi-
angle instrument the angle of
incidence and detection are
constant relative to each other.

This helpful tool, the Color Protractor was developed, by Dupont many years ago to help observers hold panels at the correct angle relative to the specular reflection.
A Simple Tool

View a pair of panels in the light booth with a known, large difference in color travel.
For example, look at a light metallic with and without a significant hit of white pigment dispersion.
How would you expect this pair to look in the light booth? What would the “Face”, “Flash”, and “Flop” look like?
How would you expect this pair to lookon a color difference plot?

Which viewing scenario better agrees with
the color differences from BYK-mac
near-specular measurements?
Scenario 2
And what would you expect to see if you
used a light booth designed to view with
the same geometries as the BYKmac?

Scenario 2
Summary Thoughts
• Many things affect the correlation between multi-angle
color measurements and visual assessments, not the least
of which is instrument and viewing geometry.
• Realize that when you move panels in a traditional light
booth, both the angle of incidence and angle of detection
change simultaneously. With the BYKmac the angle of
incidence is fixed relative to the panel.
• The Byko Spectra Effect light booth has the same fixed
geometries as the BYKmac, and can be expected to agree
better with the measurements of the BYKmac than a
traditional light booth, especially if any of the color is
produced by light interference effects.
