Features
High quality surfaces are expected to have a clear and brilliant appearance. Micro structures can cause a milky appearance and is often caused by production parameters like resin type, degree of dispersion or application process. BYK-Gardner haze meters are used for years as a reference in the paint and plastic industry to ensure a brilliant quality.
