Description

Color measuring method for coated board and color mixing method using the same
Technical Field
Mutual citation of related applications this application claims priority based on the specification of japanese patent application No. 2018-168261, filed on 7.9.2018, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.
The present invention relates to a method for measuring color of a coated sheet having a multilayer coating film including a colored coating film formed of a colored paint and a transparent coating film formed of a varnish, and a method for toning using the method.
Background
In paint shops, automobile refinish shops, tinting shops, etc., there are operations for manufacturing coated panels and measuring their colors using a color meter.
In the field of automobile repair coating, it is becoming more and more common to adopt a computer color matching method (computer color matching; CCM) using a color sensor and a computer for the purpose of standardizing a color matching operation and shortening an operation time. The computer toning method does not require a high level of toning skill, and therefore is a method by which anyone can tone simply and quickly, and is a method that is widely spread to contribute to an increase in overall productivity.
Computer Color Matching (CCM) is a method of inputting data such as characteristic values of respective color matching materials into a computer in advance, measuring colors of a vehicle body to be repaired with a color sensor to obtain various data, calculating a blending ratio of the color matching materials with the computer based on the data, weighing and mixing 1 or more color matching materials based on the obtained blending ratio to produce a colored paint, and coating the obtained colored paint on a base material and drying the paint to produce a color matching test coated plate.
The prepared color matching test coating plate is used for color matching by a color meter and/or color matching with the periphery of the repaired part. If the result is not good, the matching of the toning materials is corrected or toning is corrected according to the feeling of the operator by recalculating the computer based on the color measurement data of the manufactured toning test coating plate and the like, and the toning test coating plate is manufactured again, and the color of the toning test coating plate is measured by a color meter and/or is compared with the color around the repaired part, and the operation is repeatedly carried out until the color is qualified.
In an actual repair coating site, for example, in the repair coating of an automobile outer panel or the like, the following method is adopted: after filling the damaged portion with a putty or a primer, a colored paint in which 1 or more kinds of toning materials are mixed and toned to a target color is applied with the periphery of the damaged portion as the center, and a varnish is applied thereon. The target color is a color around the repaired portion, and may be a color tone that changes from a color tone when the vehicle is new due to the influence of sunlight or the like, and therefore, in order to obtain an appearance that is consistent with the color around the repaired portion without giving a sense of incongruity, it is necessary to manufacture a plurality of color-mixing test coated plates having a multi-layer coating film, measure the color, and perform a colorimetric operation.
Therefore, in order to obtain an appearance in which the color of the coated portion is uniform with the surrounding and the appearance is not unpleasant, it is necessary to continue the following operations until a multilayer coating film of a target color is obtained: a color test coated sheet is produced by forming a colored coating film on the basis of a colored paint obtained by mixing 1 or more kinds of color matching materials by a computer color matching method to match colors to a target color, and coating a clear coating film on the colored coating film to form a clear coating film, and the obtained color test coated sheet is subjected to color measurement by a color meter and/or color comparison with the periphery of a repaired portion.
Therefore, in the automotive refinish coating, in order to improve productivity by standardizing the toning operation and shortening the toning time, a method is required which can perform highly accurate color measurement in a shorter time.
The color measurement of a multi-layer coating film-coated color test sheet, particularly a multi-layer coating film-coated color test sheet having a transparent coating film on a colored coating film, has a problem that the color measurement value differs from the actual color of the multi-layer coating film when the color measurement is performed without the transparent coating film, when a material different from the transparent coating film actually used is applied or stuck, or the like.
In particular, in the case of a multilayer coating film having a colored coating film formed from a bright coating material such as a metallic paint containing a bright pigment, since the difference between the color tone of only the colored coating film as a single film and the color tone at the time of forming the multilayer coating film is significant, it is difficult to perform color measurement with high accuracy unless color measurement is performed in a state of a multilayer coating film having a transparent coating film to be actually used.
In addition, a 2-liquid type urethane varnish composed of a main component and a curing agent is often used as a varnish for obtaining a transparent coating film at a repair coating site.
In adjusting such a 2-liquid type urethane varnish, it is necessary to properly meter and mix the main agent and the hardening agent separately, and sintering hardening is time-consuming, thus requiring much effort and time.
In particular, in the case of producing a plurality of palette test coated plates having a multilayer coating film, since a step of sintering and hardening the multilayer coating film (and a subsequent cooling step) requires a lot of time, it is conceivable to omit the step of sintering and hardening the multilayer coating film in order to improve productivity by shortening the palette time.
However, in the case of a multilayer coating film having a colored coating film formed from a bright coating material such as a metallic coating material containing a bright pigment, if the transparent coating film is insufficiently dried, a mixed layer is formed from a solvent remaining in the coating film, and a tack-back unevenness such as an alignment disorder of the bright pigment such as an aluminum pigment occurs, which may degrade the finished appearance and may fail to obtain an accurate colorimetric value.
Further, if the coated plate (tinting test coated plate) is subjected to color measurement with a contact colorimeter in a state where the transparent coating film is not dried after the varnish application, the undried paint adheres to the colorimeter, it takes time to clean the contaminated colorimeter, and volatile components remaining on the undried coating film deteriorate parts of the colorimeter, so that it is impossible to stably perform continuous color measurement with the contact colorimeter.
A method of measuring color of a coated plate (a color test coated plate) with a non-contact colorimeter in a state where a transparent coating film is not dried can be considered, but a large-sized apparatus for performing stable color measurement under the same conditions is required, and there is room for improvement in color measurement accuracy such as variation in measurement conditions without using such an apparatus.
Further, there is still a problem of deterioration of parts of the colorimeter due to volatile components, and when the toner particles erroneously come into contact with an undried coating film, the parts are contaminated, resulting in problems such as cleaning.
Under such circumstances, the following proposals have been made up until now.
Patent document 1 discloses a toning determination method that includes: as a method for reducing the time required for producing a palette test coated sheet, when comparing a metal coated surface a after palette with a metal coated surface B of a target color, the coated surface a is wetted with an organic solvent in advance. According to this toning determination method, the gloss of the metal-coated surface can be made to have an appearance like a clear coat without taking time, but depending on the target color, a deviation occurs between the measured value obtained by the colorimeter and the actual color, and there are cases where a toned paint with excellent accuracy cannot be obtained, and there is a concern about contamination of the colorimeter and the influence of the organic solvent on the colorimeter.
Patent document 2 describes a method for measuring the color of a colored coating film, which comprises applying a liquid that does not dissolve the colored coating film on a colored coating film that feels dry to the touch of a finger, and placing a film such as a colorless transparent solid-shaped varnish barrier coating film thereon, thereby measuring the color of the colored coating film through the film. However, if this method is applied to a tinted coating film of a metallic color, there is a possibility that a deviation may occur between a measured value measured by a colorimeter and an actual color. Further, there is a problem that accurate color measurement values cannot be obtained because "tack-back unevenness" or the like which occurs in a metallic color toning coating film cannot be controlled by placing a film.
Patent document 3 describes a toning method including the steps of: (1) a step of forming a colored wet film for toning by applying a coloring liquid for toning by a coating method other than spray coating on the surface of a base material for toning to form a colored wet film for toning having a constant film thickness by (1A) a step of forming a colored dry film for toning by drying the formed colored wet film for toning as necessary, (2) a step of forming a transparent wet film having a constant film thickness by applying a transparent liquid for tinting by a coating method other than spray coating on the surface of the formed colored wet film or the colored dry film formed by drying as necessary, (2A) a step of producing a transparent dry film by drying the formed transparent wet film as necessary, (3) a step of measuring a color from the surface of the transparent wet film or the transparent dry film by a color measuring machine and (4) a step of calculating a difference between a color for toning measured by the step (3) and a sample color measured by the color measuring machine for a desired color sample, (5) and (3) a step of terminating the toning when the difference between the toning color and the sample color is determined to be small by the step (4) and therefore toning of the coloring liquid is unnecessary, and repeating the steps (1) to (4)1 or more times when the difference is large and it is determined that further toning of the coloring liquid is necessary, until toning of the coloring liquid is unnecessary because it is determined that the difference between the toning color and the sample color is small. In this toning method, a coloring liquid having a predetermined apparent viscosity range and a predetermined viscosity (structural viscosity index) range is used as a toning coloring liquid to be applied to the surface of a base material for color measurement.
This toning method does not use spray coating as a means for applying a colored paint, and therefore has the problem that when the actual means for applying is spray coating, the correlation between colors is poor and toning is difficult. Further, since the transparent dry film is formed by heating (140 ℃ C., 20 minutes) after the varnish is applied, there is a problem in that productivity is improved because the operation time including heating time and cooling time is shortened.
Patent document 4 describes a color measuring device for a liquid film, which measures a color of a liquid film before drying and curing in order to manage a color of a coating material, the color measuring device including: the liquid film forming apparatus includes a liquid film forming unit for forming a liquid film having a predetermined thickness on the surface of a liquid film forming substrate, and a color measuring unit for measuring the color of the liquid film in a non-contact manner at a position close to the surface of the liquid film, adjacently disposing the liquid film and having a transfer unit below the liquid film forming unit, and transferring the liquid film forming substrate from the liquid film forming unit to the color measuring unit.
This apparatus can perform high-precision color measurement of a liquid film of an undried coating film not only by using a non-contact type colorimeter but also by using a contact type colorimeter, but the apparatus is complicated in configuration and the color measurement operation is complicated.
Further, there is no description effective for a multilayer coating film having a colored coating film formed from a bright coating material such as a metallic coating material containing a bright pigment. Further, particularly in a colored coating film formed from a metallic paint containing a bright pigment and a multilayer coating film having a transparent coating film provided on the colored coating film, since a significant difference occurs in color tone, unevenness, and the like, if color measurement is not performed in a state of a multilayer coating film having a transparent coating film, particularly in a coated sheet (a palette test coated sheet) having a multilayer coating film of a metal, highly accurate color measurement may not be possible.
Further, since a spray coating device is not used, there is a problem that when the actual coating means is spray coating, color correlation is poor and toning is difficult.
Patent documents 5 and 6 describe that when a color measurement operation is performed with respect to a color measurement object by an integrating sphere spectrophotometer, a mask member is pressed against the color measurement object to perform color measurement. The mask member is also called a target mask or the like, and a window portion defining a size of a region (color measurement target region) to be a color measurement target in a color measurement target object is provided in a mask main body portion, and a mounting portion by which the mask member can be attached to and detached from the color meter is provided.
However, the integrating sphere spectrocolorimeters described in patent documents 5 and 6 are not generally used for color measurement of a multilayer coating film having the following colored coating films: a colored coating film formed of a bright material such as a metallic paint containing a bright pigment for automobiles which is formed into a different hue or lightness depending on the angle of observation by the bright material. The technology relating to such an integrating sphere spectrocolorimeter is applied to a multi-angle system multi-angle spectrocolorimeter having a different colorimeter mechanism, and is neither described nor suggested in patent documents 5 and 6, and is difficult in view of technical common knowledge.
Further, details of the material and thickness of the masking member are not known, and volatile components remaining in the undried coating film may deteriorate members of the colorimeter, and the like, and may cause variations between the measured values of the colorimeter and the actual colors.
Further, when the color measurement is performed by bringing the mask member into contact with the undried coating film, there are problems that it takes time to clean the mask member having a complicated structure, a plurality of expensive mask members are required, and cost is disadvantageous.

These polyisocyanate compounds and derivatives thereof may be used alone or in combination of 2 or more.
In the varnish, if necessary, a solvent such as water or an organic solvent, a curing catalyst, an antifoaming agent, an ultraviolet absorber, and other additives may be appropriately blended.
From the viewpoint of improving the color measurement workability, the glass transition temperature of the transparent coating film after drying is preferably adjusted to 50 ℃ or higher. The glass transition temperature is preferably 60 to 100 ℃, and more preferably 60 to 80 ℃.
The glass transition temperature of the clear coating film of the present invention is a dynamic glass transition temperature measured as a temperature showing a maximum value of tan δ (loss modulus/storage modulus) in a dynamic viscoelasticity measurement using an FT rheological spectrum "Rheogel E-400" (manufactured by UBM Co., Ltd.) at a frequency of 110 Hz and a temperature rise rate of 4 ℃/min. The transparent composition used in the present invention was applied to a polypropylene plate in a dry film thickness of 25 μm, a dry coating film was formed under drying conditions of 80 ℃ for 20 minutes, and then the obtained dry coating film was peeled off from the polypropylene plate as a free coating film, and cut into a sample in the form of a short strip having a length of 20mm and a width of 5mm at the edge or at the portion without a defect.
In the present invention, when a tone test coated plate is produced by using a urethane curable coating material containing a hydroxyl group-containing compound and a polyisocyanate compound as a varnish, the tone test coated plate is particularly preferable because it can form a multilayer coating film having properties extremely close to those of a multilayer coating film formed in an actual repair coating step. The color measurement can be performed with high accuracy because it is almost the same as the color measurement after actual repair coating, and the produced color matching test coated sheet is protected by a transparent coating film having urethane crosslinking bonding, is excellent in water resistance, is less in discoloration and deterioration (film thinning) with time, and can be reused as a color sample sheet.
In one embodiment of the present invention, in a state where at least the protective sheet having the color measurement area of the coating sheet opened is present between the surface of the clear coating film and the colorimeter, color measurement is performed with the colorimeter from the surface of the clear coating film within 5 minutes, preferably within 3 minutes, and more preferably within 1 minute after the formation of the clear coating film.
Therefore, even when color measurement is performed by adjusting the composition of the varnish in this manner, at least the characteristics of not causing the tack-back unevenness are required.
In one embodiment of the present invention, color measurement is performed by a color meter from the surface of the clear coat film in a state where a protective sheet in which at least the color measurement region of the coating sheet is opened is present between the surface of the clear coat film in an incompletely dried state and the color meter.
Therefore, even when color measurement is performed by adjusting the composition of the varnish in this manner, at least the characteristics of not causing the tack-back unevenness are required.
In the method for measuring the color of the coated sheet of the present invention, the transparent coating film formed by coating the varnish may be left at a temperature of 15 to 80 ℃ from the time after the varnish coating to the time of color measurement.
The transparent coating film formed by applying the varnish may have a solid content of 40 to 100 mass%, preferably 40 to 99 mass%, and more preferably 45 to 90 mass% in color measurement.
The transparent coating film formed by applying the varnish can be left at a temperature of 15 to 80 ℃ from the time of varnish application to the time of color measurement, and the solid content of the transparent coating film in the color measurement can be 40 to 100 mass%.
As means for setting the solid content of the transparent coating film at the time of color measurement to 40 to 100 mass%, appropriate coating film drying means such as heating means may be employed if necessary.
The time for setting the solid content of the clear coating film to 40 to 100 mass% is not particularly limited, but the time is preferably adjusted by adjusting the components of the varnish within 5 minutes, preferably within 3 minutes, and more preferably within 1 minute after the formation of the clear coating film.
The clear coat coating may be performed by optionally leaving it to stand and/or heating, and the solid content of the obtained clear coating film may be 40 to 100% by mass.
When the solid content of the clear coating film is 40% by mass or less, the following problems may occur: the occurrence of tack-back unevenness, the transparent coating film passing through the opening of the protective sheet and reaching the colorimeter, and the colorimeter being contaminated by volatile components such as organic solvents contained in the transparent coating film.
When the solid content of the clear coating film exceeds 90 mass%, particularly 99 mass%, it takes too much time from the formation of the clear coating film to the color measurement in the case of a normal varnish. Further, when the drying is accelerated at a high temperature (for example, more than 80 ℃) to obtain a transparent coating film, there is a possibility that a problem such as difficulty in forming a multilayer coating film having a transparent coating film which is uniform and excellent in color stability occurs.
In the present specification, the solid content (% by mass) of the transparent coating film at a predetermined time is also referred to as the solid content of the coating material applied to the object (coating NV) by the following equation.
The content of solid content of the transparent coating film is (m)2-m0)/(m1-m0)×100
m0: mass (g) of coated article before coating
m1: mass (g) of coating at a given point in time
m2: mass (g) of coating material having dried coating film with completely volatilized solvent
The dry film thickness of the transparent coating film is not particularly limited, but is usually within the range of 10 to 50 μm, preferably 20 to 40 μm, and more preferably 25 to 35 μm.
[1.3 means for coating; method for Forming coating film
As the coating means and the method for forming a coating film used in the method for measuring color of a coated sheet according to the present invention, a coating method widely used in the field of coating materials can be used without limitation.
As the means for applying the colored paint and/or varnish used in the method for measuring color of a coated sheet of the present invention, for example, 1 or more means such as air spraying, airless spraying, electrostatic spraying, rotary atomization, brush coating, roll coating, ink jet, aerosol, dipping, etc. can be used, and the application can be carried out 1 time or repeated multiple times.
As a preferable coating means, spray coating such as air spray, airless spray, electrostatic spray, and rotary atomization can be employed.
When a colored coating material is applied to a substrate, when a contaminant (oil or the like) contaminates the substrate, it is preferable to degrease and clean the substrate using a solvent such as alcohol, and when the substrate is cleaned, the substrate can be cleaned without particularly degreasing and cleaning.
In order to improve the adhesion and adhesion between the substrate and the coating film, the substrate may be subjected to surface treatment such as roughening treatment, plasma treatment, flame treatment, primer treatment, and the like.
After the colored paint or varnish is applied, the coating may be left to stand (left to stand) and/or preheated. The storage is usually performed by standing at room temperature, and the heating temperature, heating time, and the like in the case of preheating can be arbitrarily set. In some cases, forced drying may be performed by using a blower or the like.
As the substrate of the coated sheet, a substrate generally used in the production of coated sheets can be used, and various metal sheets, inorganic material sheets such as glass, various plastic sheets, cardboard, and the like can be used.
The substrate of these coated sheets may be one subjected to surface treatment such as phosphate treatment, chromate treatment, plating treatment, composite oxide treatment, electrodeposition coating treatment, primer treatment, degreasing treatment, and the like.
[1.4 colorimeter; color measurement procedure
As the colorimeter used in the method for measuring color of a coated sheet according to the present invention, a colorimeter widely used for color management and/or color measurement of industrial products having a colored surface can be used without limitation. Examples thereof include an integrating sphere spectrophotometer, a multi-angle spectrophotometer, and the like, but are not particularly limited.
The following multi-angle spectroscopic colorimeter can be preferably used: in order to cope with color measurement of a brilliant coating film (metal coating film), light is incident from one direction in 1 measurement and received at a plurality of angles of 3 to 6 angles (for example, 25 °, 45 °, and 75 °).
Particularly, an AI COLOR sensor, a Tri-COLOR multi-angle spectrocolorimeter manufactured by BYK JAPAN, and the like are preferably used.
In the present invention, L can be obtained by using such a colorimeterabL representing lightness in color spaceAnd chroma a representing hue and chromaAnd bThe value of (c). Also, using these values, the color difference from the target color can be measured quickly.
Here, LabThe color space, which is used to represent the color of an object, is currently the most commonly used color system in all fields, and is standardized by the International Commission on illumination (CIE) in 1976, and is also adopted in JIS (JIS Z8781-4, Z8781-5) in Japan.
LabIn the color space, the chromaticity a representing the hue and chroma、bDirection of the color, aIndicating the red direction, -aRepresents the green direction, and bIndicates the yellow direction, -bThe color becomes brighter as the absolute value of the numerical value becomes larger and becomes darker as the absolute value becomes smaller, indicating the direction of blue. L representing lightnessTaking a value of 0-100, LWhite when 100, L0 is black.
In one embodiment of the present invention, in a state where at least the protective sheet having the color measurement area of the coating sheet opened is present between the surface of the clear coating film and the colorimeter, color measurement is performed with the colorimeter from the surface of the clear coating film within 5 minutes, preferably within 3 minutes, and more preferably within 1 minute after the formation of the clear coating film.
In one embodiment of the present invention, color measurement is performed by a color meter from the surface of the clear coat film in a state where a protective sheet in which at least the color measurement region of the coating sheet is opened is present between the surface of the clear coat film in an incompletely dried state and the color meter.
Here, the term "incompletely dried state" of the transparent coating film provided by applying the varnish means a state in which the drying of the transparent coating film is not completely completed by heating for a long time or the like. That is, in the case where the varnish is a varnish type varnish containing no curing agent, it means that a volatile solvent (water, an organic solvent, or the like) in the varnish is not completely volatilized; in the case of a curable varnish in which a main component and a curing agent are mixed, the curing (crosslinking) is not completely completed.
In general, the state other than the "hardened and dried" state defined in JIS K5600-1 (1999) means a state in which there is no "the center of the coated surface is pinched strongly by the thumb and the index finger, the coated surface is not dented by the fingerprint, the movement of the coated surface is not felt, and the center of the coated surface is rubbed rapidly and repeatedly with the fingertip, and there is no wear mark on the coated surface".
Such a state may be, for example, a "dry-by-touch state" (a state in which the center of the coated surface is lightly touched with a fingertip and the fingertip is not stained) or a "dry-by-half state" (a state in which the center of the coated surface is lightly rubbed with a fingertip and no abrasion mark is generated on the coated surface) as defined in JIS K5600-1 (1999).
[1.5 protective sheet ]
The protective sheet used in the method for measuring color of a coated sheet according to the present invention is configured such that at least a color measuring range of the coated sheet is opened between a surface of a transparent coating film on the coated sheet and a colorimeter during coating and color measurement.
The opening provided in the protective sheet may have any shape as long as at least the colorimetric area of the coating plate is opened, and may have a circular shape, a quadrangular shape, or the like. It may be larger than the colorimetric range as long as the desired effect is obtained.
The opening of the protective sheet corresponds to a color measuring portion (sensor window, opening, etc.) provided in the color meter main body, and thereby, it is possible to directly irradiate the coating sheet with light from the light source of the color meter.
The protective sheet is present between the transparent coating film and the colorimeter, and has a function of preventing the transparent coating film from adhering to the colorimeter and contaminating the colorimeter, and a function of preventing the deterioration or damage of the colorimeter due to an organic solvent volatilized in the transparent coating film.
In addition, when the pollution of the protection sheet is serious, the protection sheet can be directly discarded because of low cost, and the protection sheet is also convenient to replace.
Further, since at least the color measurement area of the coating plate is opened and the opening is fitted to a color measurement portion (sensor window portion, opening portion, or the like) provided in the colorimeter main body, the actual multilayer coating film can be measured for color by directly irradiating light from the colorimeter light source.
The shape of the protective sheet is not particularly limited as long as the opening is provided, and other openings, cuts, and the like may be provided as long as the intended function is not impaired. Further, at least a part of the protective sheet may be formed into a desired shape by bending, molding, or the like. In view of cost and the like, a flat sheet-like protective sheet in which only the colorimetric region of the coating sheet is opened is preferable.
In particular, the sheet-like material has high versatility, can be easily processed into a desired shape as needed, and can be easily applied to various colorimeters.
The thickness of the protective sheet may be any thickness, but is usually 10 to 200 μm, preferably 20 to 150 μm, and more preferably 30 to 120 μm.
A protective sheet thinner than 10 μm may make handling of the protective sheet difficult or may be easily damaged, and may not prevent the influence of the solvent in the clear coating film on the colorimeter.
A protective sheet thicker than 200 μm absorbs light from the surroundings, and there is a possibility that accurate color measurement cannot be performed or that the color measurement value differs from the color of an actual multilayer coating film.
Examples of the material constituting the protective sheet include resins such as polyester resins, polyolefin resins, polyamide resins, polystyrene resins, acrylic resins, vinyl chloride resins, fluorine resins, cellulose resins, polyethylene resins, vinyl acetate resins, polycarbonate resins, and polyurethane resins, and plastic materials such as FRPs; metal materials such as aluminum foil, stainless steel foil, and copper foil; paper materials such as foreign paper (high-quality paper, coated paper, tracing paper, etc.), japanese paper (grass paper, sheet paper, etc.), cooking paper, cellophane, etc.; fiber materials such as woven cloth, nonwoven cloth, and knitted fabric; glass, wood, and the like.
The present invention may be a composition containing 2 or more of them, or a laminate having a layer containing 1 or more of them.
In the present invention, at least a part of at least one surface of the protective sheet may have an adhesive layer. The adhesive layer may be present on only one side or both sides, but is preferably present on one side. The adhesive layer may be provided over the entire surface of at least one surface of the protective sheet, or may be provided partially in accordance with a desired shape or the like.
Examples of protective sheets provided with such an adhesive layer include those in which an adhesive layer is provided on at least one surface of a plastic sheet (film), paper, metal, or the like to form an adhesive sheet or an adhesive tape (for example, Post-it (registered trademark) as a polyolefin resin adhesive film, a polyester resin adhesive film, or a paper-based adhesive sheet).
As the adhesive for forming the adhesive layer, any adhesive such as acrylic, rubber, silicone, urethane and the like can be used. These binders can be appropriately selected based on the following viewpoints: accurate fixation, influence on the colorimeter (prevention of glue residue at the time of peeling, prevention of separation of a colorimeter member at the time of peeling, prevention of erroneous operation of the colorimeter by an adhesive, and the like).
The presence of the adhesive layer allows the protective sheet to be reliably fixed to the colorimeter and/or the coating plate, thereby enabling continuous color measurement to be performed easily and accurately, and the protective sheet can be removed easily by utilizing the removability of the adhesive without affecting the colorimeter or the coating plate.
For example, a double-sided tape may be attached to the colorimeter and/or the protective sheet in advance, and the protective sheet may be fixed to the colorimeter and/or the coating plate by the double-sided tape.
In the present invention, from the viewpoints of durability against organic solvents used in varnishes, cost, influence on colorimeters, and the like, polyester resin films, polyolefin resin films, paper, polyester resin films provided with an adhesive layer on one side, polyolefin resin films provided with an adhesive layer on one side, paper provided with an adhesive layer on one side (for example, Post-it (registered trademark)), and the like can be preferably used as protective sheets.
< 2. color matching method >
The method of toning of the present invention is a toning method using the method of toning of a coated sheet according to the above 1, wherein the colored paint is a toning paint in which materials containing 1 or more pigments are mixed and toned to a target color, and the method includes the step of performing the toning of a toning test coated sheet coated with the toning paint by the toning method and further judging whether the toning matching of the toning paint is acceptable.
The method for measuring the color of the coated plate according to the above 1, wherein the measurement is not carried out after the formation of the multilayer coating film, followed by heating, complete drying and cooling. Therefore, in the toning method using the computer toning method, it becomes possible to continuously and rapidly measure colors with high accuracy for each coated board (toning test coated board) made of a plurality of kinds of toning paints for toning a target color.
The toning method according to the present invention using the method for measuring color of a coated sheet according to item 1 above can protect the colorimeter by a member which is not an expensive and complicated structural auxiliary member but a relatively inexpensive member, can be replaced easily, and can be used once. In addition, the color matching method can standardize color matching operation, shorten color matching time and color measuring operation time, is not influenced by back adhesion unevenness and the like, and can carry out color measurement on a multi-layer coating film which is the same as the multi-layer coating film in the actual repairing process in a short time with high precision, thereby being capable of quickly and accurately judging whether the color matching of the color matching coating is qualified.
In particular, in the case of the repair coating of an automobile using the computer toning method using a color sensor and a computer, it is preferable as a method for measuring color of a palette used for a toning test because it is judged whether or not the toning of a toning paint in which a target color is toned by mixing materials containing 1 or more kinds of coloring paints is acceptable.
Further, according to the toning method of the present invention, it is possible to quickly and accurately judge whether or not the toning of the toning paint is acceptable based on high-precision color measurement in a short time, and therefore, it is possible to standardize the toning operation, and particularly, it is possible to change the average number of times of toning from 5 to 2 in the toning operation when repairing 1 vehicle, thereby significantly shortening the toning time, for example, by about 60%.

The transparent coating film and the protective sheet are slightly adhered to each other, but the transparent coating film and the protective sheet can be easily peeled off, and the protective sheet is slightly contaminated, and thus the protective sheet can be reused.
Good to: the colorimeter can be provided without moving or the like and color measurement can be performed. The transparent coating film sticks to the protective sheet, and the transparent coating film cannot be peeled from the protective sheet, or cannot be reused even if the protective sheet is peeled.
△, if the color meter is carelessly set, the movement and/or adhesion of the clear coat film to the protective sheet occur, and the protective sheet is seriously stained and cannot be reused.
X: it is difficult to perform color measurement, and the color meter is not set or stained due to the occurrence of a transparent coating film because the color meter is set to move significantly.
As described in the above examples, in the color measurement of a coated sheet having a multilayer coating film including a colored coating film formed of a colored paint and a clear coating film formed of a clear varnish, when color measurement is performed from the surface of the clear coating film using a color meter within 5 minutes after the finish of the varnish coating in a state where a predetermined protective sheet is present between the surface of the clear coating film and the color meter, both the evaluation of the color measurement value by the color meter and the evaluation of the appearance by visual observation are extremely excellent, the evaluation of the color measurement workability is also excellent, and the same color measurement data as that of a standard sheet can be obtained.
Therefore, it becomes possible to start highly accurate color measurement in a short time for a multilayer coating film equivalent to the actual repair process.
In addition, in the color measurement of a coated sheet having a multi-layer coating film including a colored coating film formed of a colored paint and a clear coating film formed of a varnish, when color measurement is performed from the surface of the clear coating film using a color meter in a state where a predetermined protective sheet is present between the surface of the clear coating film in a non-completely dried state and the color meter, both the evaluation of the color measurement value by the color meter and the evaluation of the appearance by visual observation are excellent, the evaluation of the color measurement workability is also excellent, and the same color measurement data as that of a standard sheet can be obtained.
Therefore, it becomes possible to start highly accurate color measurement in a short time for a multilayer coating film equivalent to the actual repair process.
Therefore, when a toning test coated plate for toning is produced and color measurement is performed using a varnish (urethane curable varnish composition) used in an actual repair process, it becomes possible to start high-precision color measurement in a short time for a multilayer coating film equivalent to that in the actual repair process.
Particularly, when the repair coating adjustment of the computer toning method with more manufacturing times and color measuring times of the palette coating test is used, whether the toning matching of the toning coating is qualified or not can be quickly and accurately judged, so that the toning operation can be standardized, and the toning operation time can be greatly shortened.
Comparative example 1 is an example without a clear coating film, and it was not possible to evaluate whether or not the color tone, gloss, and tack-back unevenness occurred when a multilayer coating film was formed by coating a varnish used in the actual repair process, and actually the evaluation by the colorimetric value of the colorimeter and the evaluation by visual appearance were deteriorated.
In comparative example 2, since the multi-layer coating film (clear coating film) of the coated sheet having the multi-layer coating film was in a cured and dried state substantially, neither evaluation of the colorimetric value nor visual evaluation of the appearance of the test piece was problematic, and workability was good without sticking the protective sheet, but productivity was not improved by shortening the working time.
Comparative example 3 is an example in which a protective sheet was not used, and when the colorimeter was placed on the coating film, movement occurred while the varnish adhered to the colorimeter, and therefore, the colorimetry operability was not good.
