While use ReflectiveMaterial – Vehicle Conspicuity Markings enhances visibility, no reflectivematerial can guarantee absolute visibility, particularly in adverse weatherconditions. Performance will vary depending upon actual use, exposure conditionsand maintenance. Users should test reflective material to satisfy conformanceto their own requirements.
Photometries
Daytime Color (x,y,Y)
The chromaticitycoordinates and total luminance factor of the Vehicle Conspicuity Markingsconform to Table A Daytime Color Specifications Limit (see Note 1).
Color Test – OrdinaryColored Sheeting Conformance to standard chromaticity (x, y) and luminancefactor (Y %) requirements shall be determined by instrumental method inaccordance with ASTM E 1164 on sheeting applied to smooth aluminum test panels.
The values shall bedetermined on a spectrophotometer.
Computations shall bedone for CIE Illuminant D65 and the 2° standard observer (see Note 2)

Note 1 : The four pairsof chromaticity coordinates determine the acceptable color in terms of the CIE1931 Standard Colormetric System.
Note 2 : Theinstrumentally determined color values of retroreflective sheeting can varysignificantly depending on the make and model of colorimetric spectrophotometeras well as the color and retro reflective optics of the sheetin
