Maybe you need to average more readings with you spectrophotometer? Maybe
try changing your standard observer?
Someone here would know if either of these functions would really help you.
If I'm reading this correctly, it looks like you are having problems with
the 3 dimensional characteristics of the final product shadowing etc. This
could cause problems with the way the spectro illuminates the readings.
The pigments being blown straight on to an irregular surface too probably
cause the textures you are referring and more confused readings.
Hope I'm not being a complete Idiot here but maybe this will stir up some
discussion on this list.
