Hi! The answer is linked below. > [@What happened here? MetroX cross laser and the scan was looking good](https://forum.revopoint3d.com/t/what-happened-here-metrox-cross-laser-and-the-scan-was-looking-good/31706/7): > > Hi Adrian The red color is the only remind issue when scanning with blue light or a laser. For an obvious reason the red is absorbing the blue light so it can’t be fully reflect back to the sensors from the surface. All other trouble colors was scanned without issues with laser mode or other modes using the dark mode scanning settings. For the red I am using transparent 3D scan spray that helps to reflect the blue light better or a regular 3D spray. I am afraid there is nothing else that c… So if you want to be able to scan red color your only option might be a light layer of attblime ab zero. > [@Seeking Advice on 3D Scanning with Structured Light and AESUB Spray: Challenges and Workflow Suggestions](https://forum.revopoint3d.com/t/seeking-advice-on-3d-scanning-with-structured-light-and-aesub-spray-challenges-and-workflow-suggestions/23524/2): > > Hi @codabat and Happy New Year confetti_ball You did good job scanning it , however if you want to scan together with textures you need to purchase another 3D spray that allows you to scan difficult objects but preserve it’s color , sadly AESUB is not that proper spray , since it is mainly used for no colors scanning . You can try Attblime Zero , it will just frost it slightly still preserving the colors . The problem in yours is the shine and the black parts , without slightly frosting it… Or you try to scan the hair part in laser mode , merge with the rest and recolor it in some other software > [@Proschi3d | MetroX |Schowcase](https://forum.revopoint3d.com/t/proschi3d-metrox-schowcase/31764/18): > > You should use for those colors the same settings like for dark surfaces, red colors absorb Blue light same for yellow and green. It needs stronger exposure settings. In cases where different color combination is present, you should switch to laser mode as it handles it better. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.revopoint3d.com/t/color-scan-scanner-does-not-capture-most-the-model/36424)._
