The Novo-Gloss Trio glossmeter from Paul N. Gardner is designed for gloss measurements of all surfaces, including matt matte and mirror surfaces. It is adjustable to angles of 20, 60 and 85 degrees to handle a variety of applications. According to the company, 60 degrees is considered the universal measurement angle, and it can be used as a basic gloss assessment for any surface in applications such as paints, coatings, plastics, automotive interiors and general manufacturing. For high-gloss measurements that require increased resolution, 20 degrees is recommended.
