Introducing Colormax® Paint Colour Matching Service in Ireland

At Ultrimax, we understand the importance of precise colour matching for our customers’ projects. Whether its refinishing a product or spraying custom kitchen units, achieving accurate colours is paramount. That’s why we’ve enhanced our paint colour-matching system with state-of-the-art Colormax® technology and implemented other improvements along with our expert paint technicians, to ensure our customers receive flawless colour accuracy every time.

How Does Colormax® Work?

Our Colormax® system ensures that every colour match is spot on, providing you with the perfect shade every time. Here’s how it works:

  1. Send us a Sample: Send a small sample of the substrate to our Antrim Depot. You can also email us at [email protected] or call our Antrim depot on 028 95902479.
  2. Specify Colour Details: When ordering your paint, specify the colour name and number.
  3. Colour Scanning: Our paint technician scans the colour from your sample using our state-of-the-art spectrometer, integrating it into our formulation software.
  4. Paint Mixing: We mix the paint and perform a drawdown of the paint. We adjust the tint if necessary to achieve the precise shade.
  5. Ensuring Accuracy: We ensure that the colour matching is within a tolerance of Delta E 0.3 or below, resulting in a very close-to-perfect match.
  6. Record Keeping: The drawdown colour card is stored and filed in our database for future colour matches.

We use both white and clear bases depending on the colour requirements. For lighter colours, we use a white base to ensure better coverage and a sensible match. For darker colours, we use a clear base, which requires fewer pigments and allows for a quicker, more efficient match.
