A match of Martha Stewart MS164 Piano Key reads as a very light off-white with a subtle warm cast. The color is low in chroma, so it stays quiet rather than creamy or yellow, and its high lightness gives it a pale, clean-looking appearance on most surfaces.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on vents, switch covers, outlet plates, speaker grilles, shelf brackets, wire baskets, frames, hardware, and small furniture parts. It can also be used on PVC trim pieces, rail components, shutters, mailboxes, and other sprayable exterior details when a light neutral finish needs to coordinate across different materials.

Because this is a very light color, coverage can be more sensitive to what is underneath it. Darker substrates, uneven existing coatings, or unprimed plastic and metal may show through more easily, so surface prep, primer choice, and even film build can matter. Finish and substrate texture can also shift the way the warmth reads, especially between matte and gloss applications.

About Martha Stewart Paint Colors

For many years, Martha Stewart provided paint and color collections through partnerships with paint manufacturers and sold them through various home centers. A few years ago, Martha Stewart decided to stop selling paint and as a result, Martha Stewart MS164 Piano Key is no longer available anywhere.

MyPerfectColor is able to match all of the Martha Stewart paint colors including MS164 Piano Key so you can still find and enjoy the colors you love. MyPerfectColor uses its expert capabilities to recreate the original Martha Stewart MS164 Piano Key by matching the original Martha Stewart color books and swatches. MyPerfectColor is not using Martha Stewart paint as this is no longer available.

MyPerfectColor matches Martha Stewart MS164 Piano Key based on Martha Stewart color publications. The colors shown on this website are computer video simulations of the Martha Stewart Color and may not match Martha Stewart Color standards. Refer to Martha Stewart Publications to obtain the accurate color.

Please know that MyPerfectColor is matching the original Martha Stewart color. If you intend to touch up paint that has been on your walls for years, know that your color has undoubtedly changed from the original due to exposure to light and age and the new paint may not match. You will achieve the best results by re-coating the entire surface.

MyPerfectColor does not offer matches of any Martha Stewart Specialty Finishes such as the faux or metallic finishes.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Martha Stewart™ MS164 Piano Key *

What finish should I choose for MS164 Piano Key if I want MyPerfectColor paint to look right on my project?

Choose the sheen based on how you want the painted item to perform, not just how you want MS164 Piano Key to look. Lower sheens usually hide surface flaws better and reduce reflection, while higher sheens are easier to wipe clean and can be more durable on hard-use items. The same color can also read a little differently from matte to gloss because the finish changes how light hits the surface.

If you are matching a specific part, pick the finish that best fits the surrounding surface and the amount of handling it will get. MyPerfectColor can make a match of MS164 Piano Key in a finish that fits your project, but the sheen you order is still an important part of the final result.

Where can I find the SDS for MS164 Piano Key MyPerfectColor paint?

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint product or chemistry, not to the MS164 Piano Key color name by itself. Use the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor product you plan to order.

You can find MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets here: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm.

Can MS164 Piano Key be ordered in spray paint for switch covers, vents, or hardware?

Yes. A match of Martha Stewart MS164 Piano Key can be ordered as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color, which is practical for small parts that need a smooth sprayed finish. It is commonly used for items like switch covers, vents, brackets, knobs, speaker grilles, trim pieces, and similar removable parts.

Before ordering, confirm the part size, the finish you want, and whether the item can be properly cleaned and prepped for spray application. A spray format is usually the right choice when you want even coverage on small or awkward shapes.

What should I do before applying MS164 Piano Key over metal or an existing coating?

Clean the surface first, then remove any grease, dust, rust, chalking, or loose coating before applying a match of MS164 Piano Key. On metal, light scuffing usually helps the new coating grip better. On an existing painted surface, the condition of the old coating matters just as much as the new color.

Gloss, texture, and aging can change how MS164 Piano Key appears after it is sprayed. If the old finish is uneven or failing, the final result may not look like a fresh, uniform surface until the substrate is properly prepared. Testing a small area is a good way to reduce risk on difficult surfaces.

What should I confirm before ordering MS164 Piano Key as a custom-matched MyPerfectColor product?

Before you order, confirm the exact color reference, the product format, the sheen, and the quantity. A match of Martha Stewart MS164 Piano Key is a brand color reference, and MyPerfectColor is making its own custom-matched paint to that target rather than selling the original brand's paint.

Custom-made color matches are made to order, so they should be chosen carefully. Once the order is produced, custom color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to review the details before checkout.

How do I find the same color as the Martha Stewart MS164 Piano Key in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Martha Stewart MS164 Piano Key, 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.
