At present, there is no grading standard specifically for wood wax oil, so you can refer to the "GB / T9754-2007 Paints and varnished-Dertermination of specular gloss of non-metallic paint films at 20 °, 60 ° and 85 °" standard.

  1. The 60 ° gloss measurement angle can be applied to all paint films, but for highly glossy and nearly matte paint films, 20 ° or 85 ° may be more suitable.

  2. The 20 °gloss measurement angle (using a smaller receiver hole) can provide better resolution in the case of high gloss paint films (gloss is higher than 70 GU when measuring by a 60 ° paint gloss tester).

  3. The 85 °gloss measurement angle provides better resolution in the case of low gloss paint films (gloss is lower than 10 GU when measuring by a 60 ° paint gloss tester).
