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 740
Colour family from the 700 series: six solid colours and one metallic. The family sits in the mid-light, muted region with a blue-green hue.
The six solid colours. 740-1 through to 740-6. The range covers a wide lightness span, from L* 86 to L* 34. Position -1 and position -6 differ enough to work as a contrasting pair in a design.
The metallic. 740-M is matched to these six and intended to be applied alongside them, not as a replacement for any of the six. The metallic 740-M is clearly darker than the six solid colours. Never judge 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.
