High Gloss Solid colours Pearlescent Solid colours Arctic Breeze Mocha Essence White Pearl Sterling Silver Mushroom Starry Night Jewel Nickel Pearl Brunetti Sunset Flamingo Olive Grove Domino Magnolia Green Mist Jet Whilst every effort has been made to accurately represent Akril colours and textures, we are unable to guarantee an exact match due to the limitations of the printing process. Akril should not be used in contact with a direct heat source above 100 C. Akril is for indoor wall and door and other vertical applications only. Please note that the colour matching of Akril is within a tolerance set by CME Akril of +/-1 Delta-E for high gloss solid colours and +/- 2 Delta-E for pearlescent solid colours. Pearlescent solid colours have metallic elements suspended within the colour to give the amazing pearlescent effect. The metallic elements will reflect light differently as you look at the panel from different angles. This may give a perceived colour variation as the angle of view and light source varies.
