A match of Ralph Lauren SA16C Burundi Lake is a very dark, low-chroma gray-green with an olive cast. The color reads subdued rather than clear, with enough green to keep it from looking like a plain charcoal and enough depth to feel nearly black on small surfaces.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be used on railings, metal brackets, speaker grilles, vent covers, switch plates, mailbox parts, shutters, and other small exterior or interior components where a restrained green-gray is needed. It can also work on PVC, shelving hardware, frames, and appliance-adjacent trim when a sprayable part needs to match the selected brand color reference.
Because the color is quite dark and muted, surface texture, sheen, and film build can change how it reads. A smoother substrate and even coverage help keep the finish uniform, while thin spots or uneven prep can make the color appear lighter or more inconsistent. On darker existing surfaces, the match is less likely to show contrast than it would over a light substrate, but gloss differences can still be noticeable.

Finish changes how much light the coated item reflects, so the same match of Ralph Lauren SA16C Burundi Lake can look different after application even when the color formula is correct. A lower sheen usually looks less reflective, while a higher sheen reflects more light and can make the color read differently on edges, curves, and textured surfaces.
If you are matching an existing painted part, try to match the finish as well as the color reference. The color code identifies the target color, but it does not define sheen or how the final surface will reflect light.
Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Ralph Lauren SA16C Burundi Lake can be used on many plastic parts, but plastics vary a lot, so the actual substrate matters. Clean the part well, test on the real material if possible, and do not assume one plastic will behave like another.
For better adhesion on slick or difficult plastic surfaces, use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel before topcoating. If the item is important or hard to replace, test a small area first so you can confirm adhesion and appearance on that exact part.
Choose the finish based on how the part will be used and how you want the coated surface to look after it dries. Lower sheen usually reduces reflections and can be more forgiving on surface texture, while higher sheen reflects more light and can make the same match of Ralph Lauren SA16C Burundi Lake look different under the same lighting.
The color code does not tell you which finish to order. If the part must coordinate with an existing surface, select the finish that best matches that surface's appearance and the wear level the item will see.
Use several light, even coats instead of one heavy coat. Keep the spray moving, overlap each pass consistently, and hold a steady distance so the finish builds uniformly across the part.
Heavy passes can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking build before the coating levels out. For best results, let each coat flash off before applying the next coat and approach edges, corners, and recesses from more than one angle.
Confirm the target from a physical swatch or a known existing sample of Ralph Lauren SA16C Burundi Lake rather than from a screen alone. Screens can shift the appearance of the color, and the ordering choice should be based on the actual color reference you want reproduced.
MyPerfectColor makes a match of the selected brand color reference, so the most important step before ordering is verifying that SA16C Burundi Lake is the exact target you intend to match. If you are matching an existing item, approve the reference from the real object whenever possible.

While we can provide Ralph Lauren SA16C Burundi Lake in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another brand.
However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the brand 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.
