Metal Spray Test Card is an essential quality-control tool for paint technicians and color matchers, engineered to check paint shade accuracy and coverage performance prior to spraying the actual vehicle. Featuring a central dark contrast line, this test card allows technicians to easily evaluate the opacity (hiding power) of the basecoat layer by layer.
Constructed from sturdy sheet metal, the card resists solvent warping and is fully suitable for both waterborne (water-based) and conventional solvent-based paint systems.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Hiding Power Line: Dark center stripe clearly indicates when full paint opacity is reached.
- Solvent Resistant: Heavy-duty metal construction will not warp, curl, or degrade during spraying or drying.
- Universal Paint Compatibility: Ideal for waterborne basecoats, solvent refinish paints, 2K acrylics, and clearcoats.
- Prevents Costly Redos: Minimizes rework risk by confirming shade accuracy before painting repair parts.
Applications:
- Creating spray-out test cards for accurate automotive color matching and tinting calibration.
- Determining coat count requirements for low-hiding, pearl, metallic, or multi-stage colors.
