Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application


A match of Martha Stewart 8074 Lithograph reads as a light greige with a warm beige-gray body and a faint yellow-brown undertone. Its low chroma keeps it quiet rather than crisp, so the color looks softened and slightly muted instead of bright or sharply gray.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on small parts and accessories where a subdued neutral is needed, such as HVAC vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, cabinet hardware, picture frames, shelving brackets, railings, mailboxes, PVC trim pieces, and other removable fixtures. It is also a practical match for plastic, metal, wood, wicker, and previously coated surfaces when those items need to coordinate with a known paint reference.

Because this is a light, muted color, the underlying substrate can influence the final result if the surface is dark, uneven, or spot repaired. Uniform prep and enough film build help the color cover more evenly, and the finish you choose can make the hue read slightly warmer or cooler. On glossy parts, surface texture and sheen differences may be more noticeable than the color itself.

About Martha Stewart Paint Colors

If you intend to touch up paint that has been on your walls for years, know that your color has undoubtedly changed from the original due to exposure to light and age and the new paint may not match.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Martha Stewart™ 8074 Lithograph *

How much 8074 Lithograph paint do I need for my project?

Coverage depends on the size of the item or surface, the texture, the hiding power of the coating, the application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paint formats typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet, but the actual result can be lower or higher based on the surface and prep.

If you are ordering MyPerfectColor paint matched to 8074 Lithograph, plan for extra material if the surface is rough, porous, dark, or requires multiple coats for even coverage.

Can I use 8074 Lithograph in spray paint for baskets, frames, or furniture accents?

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 8074 Lithograph is often used for baskets, frames, shelving, decor pieces, furniture accents, hardware, and other small items where spray application is practical and the goal is to coordinate the object to a known color.

For best results, spray in light coats and make sure the item can be safely painted based on its material and condition. If the piece is plastic, metal, wicker, or previously coated, prep matters and a test on the actual item is a good way to reduce risk.

Will 8074 Lithograph spray paint stick to plastic parts?

Plastics vary widely, so a test on the actual part is the safest way to confirm adhesion and appearance. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but slick or low-energy plastics may need better prep for reliable bonding.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer can improve adhesion before applying a match of 8074 Lithograph. Clean the part first, then test a small area if the plastic type is unknown or the item will be handled often.

How do I choose a finish for 8074 Lithograph paint?

The color code 8074 Lithograph does not define the sheen, so the finish is a separate ordering choice. Higher-gloss finishes are usually easier to clean and more reflective, while flatter finishes reduce reflection and can hide minor surface variation better.

Keep in mind that sheen changes how the matched color reads on the finished item. If you need the coating for a part that will be handled or cleaned often, choose the finish based on use, not just the color name.

What prep do I need before painting metal with 8074 Lithograph?

Before applying MyPerfectColor paint matched to 8074 Lithograph on metal, clean off dust, grease, and other contamination, and scuff any sound glossy coating so the new paint can bond better. If there is rust or failing paint, remove or repair those areas first.

The condition of the existing coating can affect the final look, especially if the new work will sit next to older paint with a different gloss or texture. If the part is important or highly visible, test a small area first.

How do I find the same color as the Martha Stewart 8074 Lithograph in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Martha Stewart 8074 Lithograph, 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.
