The metallic effect comes from metal particles in the coating and cannot be shown on a screen. Viewing angle, film thickness and application method also affect the result. Always assess a physical sample in the final finish.

About colour family 120
Colour family from series 100: six solid colours and one metallic. The family sits in the very light, near-neutral region with no pronounced colour direction.
The six solid colours. 120-1 through to 120-6. The series runs from L* 95 to L* 87 — a controlled progression, usable where parts have to differ from one another without reading as a different colour.
The metallic. 120-M is matched to these six and is intended to be used alongside them, not as a replacement for one of the six. The metallic 120-M is distinctly darker than the six solid colours. Never assess a metallic on a flat sample alone: viewing angle, film thickness and application method all help determine the result. Work with a sample in the final finish.
