The advanced tinting system technique for creating custom paints
Choosing the right color is key to realizing extraordinary projects: how can you find the exact shade? Thanks to the tinting system.
What is it?
The tinting system is an advanced method for measuring and mixing colored pigments starting from a neutral base, used to create high-quality, custom-made paints.
In this process, precision is essential; even a small deviation in pigment quantities can affect the final result.
How does it work?
The tinting system operates through an efficient four-step technology:
