2. Gloss (optics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloss_(optics)

   Studies of polished metal surfaces and anodised aluminium automotive trim in the 1960s by Tingle, [7] [8] Potter and George led to the standardisation of gloss measurement of high gloss surfaces by goniophotometry under the designation ASTM E430. In this standard it also defined methods for the measurement of distinctness of image gloss and ...

3. Polished concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polished_concrete

   Concrete floor polished with 1800 grit. Polished concrete is a multi-step process where a concrete floor is mechanically ground, honed and polished with bonded abrasives in order to achieve a desired level of sheen or gloss. The Concrete Polishing Process. Concrete polishing begins with floor preparation. During this process, the floor is ...

4. Paint sheen - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint_sheen

   The sheen [4] or gloss level of a paint is principally determined by the ratio of resinous, adhesive binder, which solidifies after drying, and solid, powdery pigment.The more binder the coating contains, the more regular reflection will be made from its smooth surface; conversely, with less binder, grains of pigment become exposed to the surface, scattering the light and providing matte ...

   “High-gloss and full-gloss paint are used interchangeably and are mostly naming conventions that different brands use (e.g., Benjamin Moore's high-gloss vs Farrow & Ball's full-gloss),” Jo says.

6. Glossmeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossmeter

   Gloss meter in action. A glossmeter (also gloss meter) is an instrument which is used to measure specular reflection gloss of a surface. Gloss is determined by projecting a beam of light at a fixed intensity and angle onto a surface and measuring the amount of reflected light at an equal but opposite angle.

7. Distinctness of image - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distinctness_of_image

   A new high sensitivity/high resolution sensor allows improved measurement. Distinctness of image (DOI) is a quantification of the deviation of the direction of light propagation from the regular direction by scattering during transmission or reflection. DOI is sensitive to even subtle scattering effects; the more light is being scattered out of ...
