Gloss Measurements Evaluation Service

Atlas uses portable and benchtop BYK Gardner gloss meters for both laboratory and field measurements at 20°, 60°, 75°, and 85°.

Atlas also offers distinctness-of-reflective-image: DOI testing.

Distinctness-of-reflective-image is easily defined as the sharpness with which an object's outlines are reflected by a surface.

This measurement is predominantly used by automotive and architectural coatings manufacturers to characterize a desired appearance for the end product.

The HunterLab Dorigon® series of instruments are used to make DOI measurements, as well as narrow angle haze measurements.
