However, colours containing fluorescent dyes are, by nature, less resistant to the degrading effects of light and water. There are treatments that can be added to increase colour fastness and durability.

Pantone Lighting Indicator Stickers D65
Accurately evaluate colours in any lighting condition
<p><em><strong>To get your color right</strong> you need to <strong>get your lighting right.</strong></em></p> <p><strong>New PANTONE LIGHTING INDICATOR Stickers make it easy to determine if your viewing conditions are right for accurate color evaluation, specification and matching.</strong></p> <p><strong><em>NOW AVAILBLE for D65-range lighting!</em></strong></p> <p>Quality of light has a critical impact on color appearance, and making a color decision under the wrong lighting conditions can lead to costly and time-consuming mistakes. PANTONE LIGHTING INDICATOR Stickers tell you at a glance whether your ambient lighting conditions are giving you an accurate visual read of your color.</p> <p><strong>Simplicity itself.</strong><br />Two light-sensitive patches react to your viewing illumination, changing color under different lighting temperatures. Under proper lighting the two patches will appear to match. If the light is not in the proper range, the two patches will appear different. The further your light source is from the proper range, the more contrast the two colors of the indicator will display.</p> <p><strong>Two ranges, many applications.</strong><br />PANTONE LIGHTING INDICATOR Stickers are provided in two lighting ranges:<br />D50 (5000k) – the recommended illumination for graphic design<br />D65 (6500k) - the preferred lighting color temperature for many design and production applications</p> <p><strong>Got the color your want? Stick with it.</strong><br />PANTONE LIGHTING INDICATOR Stickers have a peel-off adhesive back that lets them attach to and travel with your color proofs, ensuring that everyone in your production chain will make accurate color decisions.</p> <p><strong>Be confident in your color choices.</strong></p> <p>The PANTONE LIGHTING INDICATOR Sticker makes it easy to get color right.</p> <p><strong>Each page contains 40 stickers, product is sold in individual pages.</strong></p> <p> </p>
