People who use on-line paint chips should be reminded that colors are likely to be significantly distorted on screen.

My other vice is photography; I have a graphic arts calibrated monitor, but it is no guarantee that colors will be spot on. Printing these color chips simply adds another uncontrolled variable.

If you need a paint chip, try and find an actual chipset that isn't weathered.....

Most computer monitors or printers are happiest producing kodak snapshot color: it is more pleasing than accurate.
