After the paint surface is dried, observe whether the color effect meets the expectation. If the color is too dark, you can add an appropriate amount of whitening agent to adjust it; If the color is too light, you can adjust it by adding a proper amount of black blending agent.

Pay attention to the dosage of admixture.

In the process of color matching, we should pay attention to the dosage of blending agent. Generally speaking, the dosage of blending agent should be gradually increased to avoid excessive color adjustment caused by excessive addition at one time. A small amount of blending agent can be added first, and then the test can be carried out after stirring evenly. According to the test results, the dosage of blending agent is gradually increased until the ideal color effect is achieved.

Stir evenly
