Datacolor 20D :
Accurate Colour Matching for Paint & Hardware Stores

Not sure where to begin?

Benefits of Datacolor 20D:
- Sphere geometry enables accurate colour measurement of both flat and textured samples.
- Gloss determination of sample sheen, combined with gloss compensation in PAINT software, enables accurate visual colour formulation.
- The illuminated sample alignment port enables direct view of the sample through the sphere and precise positioning for sample measurement.
Both models come with the following standard accessories:
