Abstract
Described herein is a computer-implemented method for providing a match metric for matching and adjusting color of a target coating and at least one sample coating, the method including at least the steps of: obtaining, via at least one communications interface, spectral curve(s) of the target coating and spectral curves of the sample coating determined at at least one gloss geometry; producing normalized first derivative values of the normalized spectral curves of the target coating and of the sample coating; producing difference values between the normalized first derivative values of the target coating and of the sample coating; producing a first match metric for the target coating and the sample coating based at least on the difference values produced for the at least one gloss geometry; and producing the match metric based on the first match metric. Also described herein is a respective system.
