Match of Martha Stewart™ MS087 French Ivory *

Finish changes how the matched color reflects light, so MS087 French Ivory can look different in flat, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss even though the color formula is the same. The color code identifies the target color, but it does not define sheen. If you are matching an existing painted part, choose the finish based on the surface you want to coat, since a higher sheen will usually read brighter and a flatter sheen will usually read softer.

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Martha Stewart color name alone. For the Safety Data Sheet for this matched paint, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page at https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm. If you are ordering a different MyPerfectColor format or product line matched to MS087 French Ivory, check the SDS for that exact product before use.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to MS087 French Ivory is useful for small or awkward parts where brushing is inefficient, such as trim details, vents, pipes, railings, hardware, fixtures, mailboxes, and removable accessories. It is also practical for items like brackets, frames, shelving parts, speaker grilles, and covers that need to coordinate with a known paint color. For these projects, the key advantage is getting a match of MS087 French Ivory in a format that sprays evenly onto the part you are coating.

Coverage depends on the surface area, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but rough or porous surfaces can use more material and light colors may need extra coats over dark or uneven substrates. For larger jobs, calculate the total area first and then plan for at least two light coats if you want an even result.

Other MyPerfectColor paint formats typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet, but actual coverage still depends on the surface and application conditions.

For MS087 French Ivory, the best results usually come from clean, prepared surfaces and multiple light, even coats instead of one heavy pass. Keep the can at a consistent distance, overlap each pass slightly, and move at a steady speed so the film builds evenly. Heavy coats can cause runs, uneven sheen, and color build that looks darker or less uniform than the matched formula.

If the part is metal, plastic, wood, or a previously coated surface, follow the prep steps recommended for that substrate before spraying so the finish can bond properly and dry evenly.

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 MS087 French Ivory, 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.
