A match of Richard's Paint 2238-A Nastursium is a vivid, warm orange-red with a strong red base and a noticeable orange lean. It reads medium-deep rather than pale, so it carries color clearly without looking muted or dusty.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color is useful on small, spray-friendly parts where a defined accent color is needed. It can work on mailboxes, railings, brackets, frames, switch covers, speaker grilles, vent covers, trim caps, hardware, and other removable pieces when the goal is to carry the same color reference across mixed materials.

Because this is a high-chroma color, it may need more coats than a quieter neutral for even coverage, especially over dark, textured, or uneven substrates. Surface prep, film build, and finish can shift how orange or red it reads, and a glossier finish can make flaws and sheen differences more noticeable. On exterior parts, vivid tones can also be more sensitive to wear and fade than quieter neutrals.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Richard's Paint™ 2238-A Nastursium *

How soon can I recoat 2238-A Nastursium from Richard's Paint in MyPerfectColor spray paint?

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 2238-A Nastursium from Richard's Paint is typically dry to the touch within minutes, but it should usually be recoated in about 1 to 2 hours.

Full cure takes about two weeks. Dry to the touch, recoat time, and full handling readiness are different stages, so do not assume the part is fully ready for hard use just because the surface feels dry.

Can I spray 2238-A Nastursium from Richard's Paint on plastic with MyPerfectColor?

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to 2238-A Nastursium from Richard's Paint can be used on many plastic parts, but plastics vary a lot, so a test on the actual material is important before you commit to the full project.

For smooth or difficult plastics, use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel to improve adhesion. That is especially helpful on parts like PVC pipe, vent covers, switch plates, or other molded components where surface prep can make a big difference.

What prep should I do before spraying 2238-A Nastursium from Richard's Paint on metal or an old coating?

Before applying MyPerfectColor paint matched to 2238-A Nastursium from Richard's Paint, clean the metal or existing coating thoroughly and remove rust, oil, dirt, and any loose material.

If the surface is glossy or slick, scuffing it first can help the new coating bond better. The condition of the old finish, plus its gloss and texture, can affect how the final color reads, so starting with a sound surface gives you the most predictable result.

Where do I find the SDS for 2238-A Nastursium from Richard's Paint?

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product or chemistry, not to the 2238-A Nastursium color name alone.

To find the right SDS, check the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets section for the product you plan to order. That is the correct place to confirm safety information for the exact paint formulation.

Will lighting change how 2238-A Nastursium from Richard's Paint looks after I apply it?

Yes. After MyPerfectColor applies a match of 2238-A Nastursium from Richard's Paint, the finished part can still read differently depending on lighting, sheen, placement, and nearby surfaces.

A part viewed in bright daylight may not look the same as the same color on a wall, vent, trim piece, or fixture under indoor lighting. If the item will sit next to an existing painted surface, expect the surrounding conditions to affect how the match is perceived even when the color is correct.
