Like Pantone books, color checkers don't last long before the colors fade, maybe a year or less. I remember being surprised at how much money we were spending on them.
- azornathogron 27d agoI don't know anything about it, but I find this interesting, perhaps slightly surprising. It doesn't suprise me that it would fade, but, that being a presumably known problem, do the color checkers not have a good cover/case for storage? (something foil backed or similar to really block out the light)? Or do they even fade quickly just from being taken out briefly for use?
- isomorphic 26d agoThe colors may also fade/drift upon exposure to air and humidity, not just light.
- azornathogron 26d agoOh, interesting. That does make sense.
