A match of Dunn Edwards DE 888 U2 Wild Rose reads as a deep, muted rose with a warm red-brown undertone. It sits in the darker range, so the color feels subdued rather than bright, with enough red in it to stay clearly rosy and enough brown to keep it grounded.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Dunn Edwards color reference can be used on vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, railings, mailboxes, brackets, frames, shelving, and small hardware pieces where a sprayed finish is easier than brushing. It also works for PVC, trim accessories, and other removable parts that need to coordinate with an existing painted surface.
Because this is a darker, moderately saturated color, surface preparation and even film build matter. The tone can look deeper on textured parts and may show sheen differences or substrate flaws more clearly than a lighter neutral. When covering a lighter base, additional coats may be needed for uniform color and edge-to-edge coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Dunn Edwards™ DE 888 U2 Wild Rose *
How do I confirm that DE 888 U2 Wild Rose by Dunn Edwards is the right color before I order MyPerfectColor paint?
Confirm DE 888 U2 Wild Rose from a physical swatch or a known existing painted reference from Dunn Edwards, not from a screen image alone. MyPerfectColor matches the selected brand color reference, so the order should be based on the original color target you want matched.
If you are comparing an existing part, make sure you are matching the actual target color and not an aged, faded, or differently sheened surface next to it. That helps reduce the risk of ordering a match of the wrong reference.
How much MyPerfectColor paint do I need for DE 888 U2 Wild Rose on my project?
Coverage for a match of DE 888 U2 Wild Rose depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, while other paints typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet.
For best ordering, estimate the total area first, then add extra if the surface is rough, dark, porous, or likely to need more than one coat. If you are coating trim pieces, vents, hardware, or other small parts, it is usually better to round up than to run short.
Can I return custom MyPerfectColor paint matched to DE 888 U2 Wild Rose if I order the wrong Dunn Edwards color?
Custom-made color orders should be placed carefully because MyPerfectColor paint matched to DE 888 U2 Wild Rose is made to your selected reference and is not returnable or refundable. Before ordering, confirm the Dunn Edwards color reference, the product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need.
If there is any uncertainty about the target color, stop and verify it first from a physical swatch or a known existing reference. That is the safest way to avoid ordering a custom match for the wrong color.
Which sheen should I choose for DE 888 U2 Wild Rose in MyPerfectColor custom paint?
Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used, cleaned, and viewed. For a match of DE 888 U2 Wild Rose, gloss level affects durability, reflectivity, cleanup, and how the color reads on the finished item.
Lower sheen finishes usually reduce shine, while higher sheen finishes can look brighter and may make surface flaws more noticeable. Pick the sheen that fits the object and the amount of wear it will see, not just the color name itself.
Why does DE 888 U2 Wild Rose look different after I apply the MyPerfectColor match?
Even when MyPerfectColor matches DE 888 U2 Wild Rose correctly, the finished appearance can shift because of lighting, placement, sheen, and nearby surfaces. The same color can read differently on a wall, trim piece, fixture, or removable part once it is installed.
If the color will sit beside an existing painted surface, check the original Dunn Edwards reference carefully before ordering and expect the applied finish to reflect the real project conditions. This is especially important when the item will be seen in strong light or next to other coated parts.
