The described method is also suitable for measuring the reflection properties of other high-gloss metal surfaces. The method is not suitable for metal surfaces with a messy finish and does not measure color.

A goniophotometer is a specialized instrument used to measure light properties such as light intensity distribution. In this context, it is likely to be used to evaluate the reflection properties of aluminum surfaces from different angles.

A shortened goniophotometer is a more compact or simplified version of a goniophotometer. It can be used in situations where a full goniophotometer is not required but still provides sufficient data for the intended purpose.

EN 12373-13 provides a detailed procedure for carrying out measurements using a goniophotometer or an abbreviated goniophotometer. This will include sample preparation, instrument calibration, and the specific conditions under which measurements must be taken.

The standard is particularly applicable to anodised aluminum surfaces. The method is used to evaluate the optical properties of these surfaces by providing data on reflection from different angles.
