Match of Pratt and Lambert™ 1408 Oasis *

For spray paint, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat. For non-spray paint formats, coverage is usually about 400 to 600 square feet per gallon, but the actual amount you need depends on the size of the item, surface texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you plan to apply.

If you are coating small parts like vents, pipe, railings, mailboxes, or hardware in Pratt and Lambert 1408 Oasis, it is wise to allow for test spraying and a second coat instead of ordering to a bare minimum.

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Pratt and Lambert 1408 Oasis can be used on many plastic items, but plastics vary a lot. The safest approach is to test on the actual material first because different plastics may need different prep or primer.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel can help improve adhesion on difficult plastic surfaces. That is especially useful for parts such as covers, grilles, trim pieces, or other molded items where the substrate can affect how the color holds.

Before applying a match of Pratt and Lambert 1408 Oasis to metal or over an existing coating, clean the surface thoroughly and remove dirt, grease, wax, rust, and loose paint. If the old finish is glossy or very smooth, scuff sanding helps the new coating grip better.

The condition of the old coating matters because gloss, texture, and wear can change how the finished color reads. If you are repainting railings, fixtures, mailboxes, or hardware, test the prep on a small area first so you can see whether any defects or show-through need more work.

Before ordering a match of Pratt and Lambert 1408 Oasis, confirm the brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need. Those choices affect whether the finished item looks and performs the way you expect.

Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to verify the details before checkout. This is especially important when you are matching a specific Pratt and Lambert color for a removable part, fixture, or replacement piece.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Pratt and Lambert 1408 Oasis, 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.
