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 340
Colour family from series 300: six solid colours and one metallic. The family sits in the dark, strongly muted region with a red hue.
The six solid colours. 340-1 through to 340-6. The series covers a wide lightness range, from L* 69 to L* 22. Position -1 and position -6 differ so much that they can work as a contrasting pair in a design.
The metallic. 340-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 340-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.
