Match of Cabot™ Beechwood Gray *

Plastics vary a lot, so test Cabot Beechwood Gray 12736 on the actual plastic before you commit to the full part. MyPerfectColor spray paint adheres well to most plastics, but using the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel can improve adhesion on difficult or low-energy surfaces. Clean the part first, then test for fit, adhesion, and appearance on the exact material you plan to paint.

For metal or an already coated part, clean off dust, oil, and contamination first, then scuff the surface so the new coating can grip. Remove loose paint and address rust before applying Cabot Beechwood Gray 12736. The condition of the old coating, plus its gloss and texture, can affect the final appearance, so a test application is the safest way to check the result on your specific item.

Yes. Cabot Beechwood Gray 12736 can be ordered as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for small parts where a smooth sprayed finish is preferred. It is a practical choice for switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, and similar items. If you are painting multiple removable parts, spray paint is usually the easiest way to keep the color consistent across them.

Lighting, placement, nearby surfaces, sheen, and the substrate itself can all change how Cabot Beechwood Gray 12736 reads after it is applied. Even when the color match is correct, a painted part can look lighter, darker, warmer, or cooler depending on where it is installed and how it is viewed. If the item will sit right next to an existing painted surface, test it first so you can judge the finished appearance in the real location.

For Cabot Beechwood Gray 12736 custom spray paint, expect it to be dry to the touch within minutes, ready for recoating in about one to two hours, and fully cured in about two weeks. Do not treat dry to the touch as fully cured, because handling too soon can mark the finish. If you are building coverage in coats, keep the recoating window in mind so each layer can set properly.

Please note that if your material is not new then the paint may not work for touch up as your material has aged and is likely different than it was when new.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Cabot Beechwood Gray, we don't provide any crossover information because this is a subjective determination. Every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another company's color collection, so determining which color is the best approximation is a judgement call.

However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Related Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the company you want.

Keep in mind that this just shows similar colors based on the color values we have stored in our database. It doesn't mean it is the same or give any approximation about how close the color is. You can play around with the Hue, Lightness and Chroma sliders to expand the selection.
