<p>ISO 4630-2:2004 specifies a method for estimating, by means of the Gardner colour scale, the colour of clear, yellow/brown liquid products using colour-measuring instruments. The results may be invalid if other products are tested. The test uses the Gardner colour scale described in ISO 4630-1, which describes a visual method.</p>
<p>The method is applicable to drying oils, varnishes and solutions of fatty acids, polymerized fatty acids, resins, tall oil, tall oil fatty acids, rosin and related products. </p>
<p>The method described provides a more precise way of measuring Gardner colour than that described in ISO 4630-1. It is applicable to products having colours from Gardner 1 to Gardner 18. The Gardner scale is not applicable to products with colours lighter than 1 or darker than 18.</p>
