OTTOSEAL® S 100 Professional Colour Chart

OTTOSEAL® S 100 Installer Color Chart – handy color sample for professionals

The OTTOSEAL® S 100 Installer Color Chart is the compact color sample for anyone who wants to assess colors quickly, precisely, and directly on the object. Thanks to its handy format, the color chart can be easily held against tiles, natural stone optics, sanitary ceramics, or wall connections – ideal for construction sites, customer appointments, and quick on-site coordination.

What is the Installer Color Chart for?

Quick color approval on the substrate

Whether new construction, renovation, or touch-up: the final color effect of a joint always results from the interaction of light, texture, and surroundings. With the Installer Color Chart, you can check the OTTOSEAL® S 100 colors directly where they are intended to be – without room for interpretation due to monitor colors or unsuitable product photos.

Perfect for trade, object & consulting

• Installers: quick sampling, clear color decision, fewer complaints
• Construction management/planning: quick coordination with customers and trades
• Service/joint renovation: easier to find a suitable shade for existing joints

Advantages of the handy Installer Color Chart

Compact, robust, practical

• Handy format for direct comparison in hard-to-reach places
• Quick color check in changing light conditions (bathroom light/daylight)
• Efficient process: fewer incorrect orders, less rework
• Professional sampling at the customer's site – even on the go

More certainty than pure online color viewing

Tile surfaces, joint width, gloss level, and room lighting influence how a tone is perceived. A physical color sample makes these differences visible before material is processed.

Typical applications

• Color matching in bathroom, shower, toilet, and kitchen
• Sampling on tiles, ceramics, glass, and adjacent surfaces
• Object work: uniform color selection across multiple rooms/residential units
• Repair/service: determine the closest matching tone to existing joints

How to use the Installer Color Chart for the best color decision

Practical tips for realistic color effect

1. Hold the color chart directly to the substrate (do not judge from a distance).
2. Always check in daylight and in artificial light.
3. Assess the color effect from a typical viewing distance (approx. 1–2 m).
4. For critical tones: briefly test in several places (wall, floor, niches).

Note: Depending on the environment, the same color tone can appear differently. The Installer Color Chart is designed to confirm the decision at the actual place of use.

Matching product: OTTOSEAL® S 100 Sanitary Silicone

Once the color has been determined, you can specifically select and order the appropriate OTTOSEAL® S 100 Sanitary Silicone. Further installer color charts for other products (e.g., S 70, M 360) are ideal for completing your sampling set.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference to a standard color card?

The Installer Color Chart is particularly handy and designed for quick comparison on the substrate. This often makes it easier to hold and assess in practice – especially in corners, niches, or narrow areas.

Is the color chart suitable for indoor and outdoor projects?

The color chart serves for color selection for OTTOSEAL® S 100. For assessment, it is recommended to check the tone at the respective application site and under the relevant lighting conditions – both indoors and outdoors.

Can I use it to reproduce existing joints?

Yes. Especially for repairs, the Installer Color Chart helps to find the closest matching color tone. Hold the chart to the existing joint and compare in daylight and in room light.

Why do colors appear different depending on the room?

Light temperature, tile structure, gloss levels, and surrounding colors influence perception. A physical color sample is therefore significantly more reliable than a digital representation.
