A warm medium-dark brown with an earthy orange-red undertone, this color reads muted rather than clean or saturated. Its low LRV means it will appear relatively deep on finished parts, while the moderate chroma keeps it in a natural brown range.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on vents, return grilles, switch plates, mailbox parts, railings, brackets, shelving supports, picture frames, cabinet pulls, door hardware, PVC trim pieces, or speaker grilles when you want those items to carry the same brown reference as nearby painted surfaces. It is also practical for small exterior components such as shutters, downspout straps, utility covers, and other removable parts that are easier to spray than to brush.

Because this is a deeper, muted color, the final look can shift with finish, substrate texture, and film build. The color is not especially high-chroma, so it usually covers more predictably than a vivid accent color, but lighter or uneven substrates can still show through until enough film builds. Finish choice also changes the read: gloss can make the earthy undertone look deeper and can highlight texture or repair marks, while flatter finishes soften it.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Richard's Paint™ 2287-A Earthen Treasure *

Can I return a custom match of 2287-A Earthen Treasure by Richard's Paint if it is not the color I expected?

Custom-made orders are made to your selected reference and should be confirmed carefully before you buy. Once MyPerfectColor makes a custom match of 2287-A Earthen Treasure, it is not a standard stock item, so it should be chosen only after you have confirmed the brand color, product type, sheen, and quantity you need.

If you are unsure about the reference, verify it before ordering so you do not end up with a custom color that cannot be returned or refunded.

Which sheen should I choose for 2287-A Earthen Treasure in MyPerfectColor paint?

The best sheen depends on where and how you will use the matched paint. For 2287-A Earthen Treasure, a flatter sheen will reduce reflection and can help hide surface texture, while a glossier sheen is usually easier to clean and may make the color read a little deeper or brighter on the finished item.

Because gloss level changes both durability and appearance, choose the sheen based on the part you are painting, the amount of handling it will get, and the look you want after the paint dries.

How do I confirm I have the right 2287-A Earthen Treasure color before ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

Confirm 2287-A Earthen Treasure from a physical swatch, a known existing sample, or another reliable original brand reference rather than relying on a screen alone. MyPerfectColor matches the selected brand color reference, so the most important step is making sure the target color itself is the one you want before you place the order.

Screen viewing can shift how the color appears, and the code by itself does not tell you the sheen, substrate, or condition of an existing painted surface.

Can I use 2287-A Earthen Treasure on plastic parts, and do I need a primer?

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to 2287-A Earthen Treasure can be used on many plastic parts, but plastics vary widely, so a test on the actual material is important before you paint the final item.

If the surface is difficult or has low adhesion, use the MyPerfectColor primer to improve bonding. Good prep matters on plastic because the same color can perform differently depending on the substrate, texture, and cleaning step used before painting.

What spray technique works best for 2287-A Earthen Treasure in MyPerfectColor custom spray paint?

Use light, even coats and keep the spray pattern moving so the color builds gradually. That helps reduce runs, uneven sheen, and heavy buildup that can make 2287-A Earthen Treasure look muddy or patchy on the finished part.

Maintain a consistent spray distance, overlap each pass slightly, and let each coat dry according to the product directions before adding the next one. This is especially important on darker colors and on parts where edge coverage and uniform sheen matter.
