Paints and varnishes - Visual comparaison of the colour of paints

L'ISO 3668:1998 fait partie d'une série de normes traitant de l'échantillonnage et des essais des peintures, des vernis et des produits assimilés. Elle spécifie une méthode de comparaison visuelle de la couleur de feuils de peinture ou de produits assimilés par rapport à un étalon (soit un étalon de référence, soit un étalon fraîchement préparé) utilisant soit la lumière du jour naturelle, soit des sources de lumière artificielle dans une cabine normalisée. Elle ne s'applique pas aux revêtements contenant des pigments à effets spéciaux, par exemple métalliques, sans accord préalable sur tous les détails concernant les conditions d'éclairage et d'observation.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
