Abstract:
1. A gloss prediction process comprising: (a) dispensing on a test substrate a L (b) projecting on said L (c) measuring B (d) curing or drying said L (e) measuring Y (f) storing said B (g) repeating said steps (a) through (f) for S (h) subtracting said B (i) locating intersecting points on a graph where said ΔB (j) using a curve fitting equation to produce a gloss prediction curve on said graph; (k) dispensing on said test substrate a L (l) projecting on said L (m) measuring B (n) subtracting said B (o) locating said ΔB (n) locating an intersecting point on said gloss prediction curve that intersects with said ΔB (p) predicting gloss at said preset gloss angle of a target coating resulting from said target layer by locating Y
