Designed specifically to measure the gloss of surfaces that cannot be measured using traditional glossmeters, the Novo-gloss flex 60 glossmeter combines the functionality and reporting of an advanced glossmeter with an ultra lightweight remote measuring head. The Novo-Gloss Flex 60 has been designed specifically to measure low gloss surfaces. It features an additional measuring scale with a resolution 10 times greater than standard glossmeters. This increased resolution gives a far superior level of control of surface finish. The Novo-Gloss Flex 60 complies to ISO 2813 and measurements made with...

Gloss is an aspect of the visual perception of objects that is as important as colour when considering the psychological impact of products on a consumer. it has been defined as "the attribute of surfaces that causes them to have shiny or lustrous, metallic appearance". The gloss of a surface can be greatly influenced by a number of factors, for example the smoothness achieved during polishing, the amount and type of coating applied or the quality of the substrate. Manufacturers design their products to have maximum appeal: highly reflective car body panels, gloss magazine covers or satin black...

Gloss is measured by shining a known amount of light at a surface and quantifying the reflectance. The angle of the light and the method by which the reflectance is measured are determined by surface and also aspect of the surface appearance to be measured. The unit of measurement for gloss is the Gloss Unit (GU) and the measurement scale at 60 degrees is 0-1000GU where 0 = a completely matt surface and 1000 = a perfect mirror. The Novo-Gloss Flex 60 has a measurement range of 0 -125 GU and can measure anything from matt surfaces to high gloss finishes typically seen in the automotive industry....
