Tips for using the Colour Key
From chatting with Bronagh on the IGTV she gave some great tips on using the colour key.
If you open the app and it says at the top of the screen ‘Your ColorReader needs Calibration’ This means you have to pop the lid back on that has a clean white colour balance to reset the colour reading so you can get the most accurate colour match.

Another great tip that Bronagh had as well was to make sure if you are reading deep pile to not push it into the surface just lay it on the surface.
The colour key reader is a real game changer for me and I highly recommend it. You can purchase it at the Crown Decorating Centres or their website HERE
