For professional grades of paint we list the pigments used. The pigment
is
indicated by letters and figures according to the Colour Index. The
Colour
Index is an international system which allows one to check which
pigments are
used in a particular colour and what the properties of that pigment are.
The
letters stand for a particular colour, the figures give the specific
type of pigment.
For example: PW6 = Pigment White, 6 = Titanium dioxide. The following
pigment designations are currently used:
PW = Pigment White P Y = Pigment Yellow PO = Pigment Orange
