Your BYK-Gardner Team
The digital fan deck for the repair body shop
Every year new car models and colors are introduced to meet current trends. Effect colors with high sparkling, strong flop or high chroma are becoming more and more popular. This presents a real challenge for the repair body shop as these colors look different depending on lighting conditions and viewing angles.
BYK-Gardner’s new multi-angle color meters, micro-TRI-color and micro-TRI-effect, measure color and even the effect objectively with unsurpassed accuracy. Based on the measurement results the new color matching software, a cloud application, will find the right color in seconds using innovative search and correction methods.
With the new BYK Gardner car refinish solution, paint makers can now offer their body shop clients a complete solution to make the color matching work not only easier and faster, but with matching hit rates greater than 80% - even for complex pearl and effect colors.

Did you know that our visual acceptance is more tolerant when comparing chromatic colors than achromatic colors?
Did you know that chromatic colors are a major challenge to launch despite allowing larger color tolerances?
