There was a problem that the coating film performance such as hardness and water resistance deteriorated.

Therefore, in the above-mentioned repair, a primer (white to black) having good concealing properties and a lightness can be adjusted, or a color primer adjusted to an approximate color of the overcoating color is applied.
The above-mentioned top coat has been applied to improve the color consistency with the normal coated surface, and a thin film of the top coat has been made possible.

However, when the above-mentioned color primer is used, a plurality of colors must be weighed and mixed in toning in accordance with the overcoating color, and the workability is very poor. In addition, when using a primer whose brightness can be adjusted, the coating color tends to change depending on the number of times of coating (film thickness) of the top coat, so a primer coated plate of various brightness is prepared for each toning and painted on this. There was a problem that it was necessary to confirm the color.

[0006]

Means for Solving the Problems As a result of diligent studies to solve the above problems, the present inventor has provided a plurality of color samples of different lightness paint colors whose lightness is adjusted by mixing white and black. By preparing a toning auxiliary card that has been prepared, it is possible to omit the trouble of applying primers of various brightnesses for each toning, and it has been found that the obtained painted card can be used at the next toning, and the present invention has been developed. It was completed.

That is, the present invention provides: On the base sheet, a plurality of color samples of different paint colors, the brightness of which is adjusted by mixing white and black, are provided side by side on a single sheet, or the paint samples of different paint colors of different lightness Is a card provided with one color per sheet, wherein a color overcoat is applied on the color sample and the application color of the color overcoat is determined, . 2. The color adjusting device according to claim 1, further comprising a concealing paint color judging portion composed of white and black portions, and applying a color overcoating paint on the concealing paint color judging portion to judge the concealing paint color of the color overcoating color. A color assisting card.
