Match of Behr™ 1813 Cottage White *

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a custom spray paint matched to Behr 1813 Cottage White for small projects where spraying is the practical way to coat the part. It is a match of Behr 1813 Cottage White, not the original Behr paint.

This format is a good fit for baskets, frames, shelving accents, decor pieces, knobs, brackets, and other removable items where you want the object to coordinate to the selected color. If the part is large or you need another format, choose the MyPerfectColor product that best fits the substrate and application method.

For metal or an existing coating, prep matters as much as the color match. Clean off dirt, grease, wax, and loose material, then scuff any sound glossy surface so the new coating can grip. If there is rust, flaking paint, or contamination, remove it before spraying.

A match of Behr 1813 Cottage White will only look as consistent as the surface beneath it. Old gloss level, texture, and patchy repairs can change the final appearance, especially when you are coating part of a piece next to older paint. If adhesion or surface condition is uncertain, test a small area first.

Sheen changes how a MyPerfectColor match to Behr 1813 Cottage White will read on the finished item. The same color target can look different in matte, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss because each finish reflects light differently.

If you are coating a new part, choose the finish that fits the object's use. If you are trying to coordinate with an existing painted item, compare finish first, because a sheen mismatch can be more noticeable than the color itself.

Plastics vary widely, so the safest approach is to test Behr 1813 Cottage White on the actual part before finishing the full item. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but adhesion can change with the type of plastic and its surface condition.

Clean the part carefully and use the MyPerfectColor primer to improve adhesion when the substrate is difficult or the project will see handling. If the plastic is flexible, slick, or low-energy, a test panel is especially important.

Use light, even coats and keep the can moving so each pass overlaps the previous one slightly. Stay at a consistent distance and avoid heavy passes, which can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy build of color.

Let each coat dry or flash off according to the can instructions before adding the next coat. Because Behr 1813 Cottage White is a light color, a smooth and uniform base helps the final coating read more evenly on the finished part.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Behr 1813 Cottage White enables you to conveniently achieve a professional spray-smooth finish in any color in any sheen. It sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.

The MyPerfectColor 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat. Keep in mind that it is difficult to gauge spray paint need as the coverage is highly dependent on how it is applied. Learn more about how spray paint works at MyPerfectColor.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Behr 1813 Cottage White in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

Please note that if your material is not new then the paint may not work for touch up as your material has aged and is likely different than it was when new. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. If you need a touch up application, send us a part and we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

While we can provide Behr 1813 Cottage White 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.
