Match of Martha Stewart™ MS031 Persimmon *

Yes, but surface condition matters. For metal or an older coating, clean off grease, dirt, rust, chalking, and any loose paint before you apply a match of MS031 Persimmon. Lightly scuffing the surface also helps the new coating bond.

The finish and texture of the old coating can change how MS031 Persimmon reads after it dries, even when the color match itself is correct. If the part will sit next to an existing painted area, test the match on the actual surface first so you can see how the old coating, sheen, and substrate affect the result.

Plastics vary a lot, so the safe approach is to test MS031 Persimmon on the exact plastic before painting the full part. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but adhesion can improve when you use the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel first.

If the plastic is slick, flexible, or unknown, a primer and a test panel are the best way to reduce the risk of peeling or poor adhesion. That is especially important for parts such as trim pieces, covers, housings, or other items that need to stay coated after handling.

The SDS is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product or chemistry, not to the MS031 Persimmon color name by itself. If you need the safety information, use the SDS for the exact paint format you are ordering, such as spray paint or another MyPerfectColor product line.

Yes. A match of Martha Stewart MS031 Persimmon is a practical choice when you want MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to a known color for items such as baskets, frames, shelving, brackets, knobs, furniture accents, and other small decor pieces.

Spray paint is usually the easiest option when the item has edges, corners, or details that are hard to brush evenly. Make sure the piece is clean and properly prepared so the match of MS031 Persimmon goes on uniformly and dries as expected.

Choose the sheen based on the job, not just the color name. A match of Martha Stewart MS031 Persimmon will look different in flat, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss because the finish changes reflectivity, cleanup, durability, and how the color reads on the final item.

If the part will be handled often or needs easier cleaning, a higher sheen may make sense. If you want less shine on the finished surface, a lower sheen may fit better. The same MS031 Persimmon match can look noticeably different from one sheen to another, so match the finish to the application before you order.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Martha Stewart MS031 Persimmon 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.

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 MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Martha Stewart MS031 Persimmon, 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.
