New micro gloss
Quantity
Gloss is a visual impression resulting from surface evaluation. The more direct light is reflected, the more obvious the impression of gloss will be.
The intensity is dependent on the material and the angle of illumination. In case of non-metals (coatings, plastics) the amount of reflected light increases with the increase of the illumination angle. The remaining illuminated light penetrates the material and is absorbed or diffusely scattered dependent on the color. Metals have a much higher reflection and are less angle dependent than non metals.
