ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for measuring the gloss of a surface of a material by receiving light reflected from the surface and measuring the amount of light. Parallel light rays from a light source are directed against the surface the gloss of which is to be determined at an angle of incidence, and a cross-section of light rays reflected from the surface at an angle of reflection equal to the angle of incidence is received and the central region of the cross-section of the light rays is blocked out by a light intercepting plate, so that only the light received after the blocking out of the central region is used as a determination of the gloss of the surface.
