screen tints

Italian translation: retino

English term or phrase: screen tints
These terms are used in the description/comparison of maps: "screen tints" are used to separate/differentiate building from ground using the same color. In the book I'm translating there is the picture of a plan where two different shades of gray are used to distinguish building from ground. The sentence I'm trying to translate is: at left, 3% and 7% screen tints for ground and for building.

Thanks!
