Re: A study of clears - part two
I've let the Winter Mist panel sit out in the garage for 5 months and yesterday I put it on the hood of my truck all day long while I did yard work. Yesterday was a sunny beautiful day here with a temp of 82. It's time to check it for yellowing or color shifts.
This is the original chart I did 5 months ago:
I'll post up screen grabs of BabelColor. Both the pertinent RGB data and spectral curves. For the RGB data, a reading of the Winter Mist panel is on the right side. For the spectrums, Winter Mist is the black line.
All of these topcoats are of Valspar's Clear Protector in differing ratios of flat and satin. At the end I substituted Minwax Polycrylic Satin.
We'll start off with 50/50 flat and satin:
60% flat to 40% satin
70% flat 30% satin
80% flat 20% satin
The
Minwax
values - all satin ratios are the Minwax Polycrylic satin
50% flat 50% satin
60% flat 40% satin
