Default Just a quick question
I bought a book that includes a color chart and gray card. I thought I would laminate them for protection. Will laminating them (with the layer of plastic) cause them to be inaccurate?

Yes
Laminating them will cause reflections. Not good

I would have thought it would have given a sheen. What about putting in into just a little plastic wallet. Like this type of thing:

I had a grey scale from a book that was printed on paper with a slight sheen. It was completely useless.
Grey scale and colour charts need to be printed on non reflective card.

Thank you. That is kind of what I expected.
