Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

A match of Martha Stewart MSL211 Ash Bark reads as a light, muted tan-beige with a warm yellow-brown undertone and modest chroma. It sits in an earthy neutral range rather than a clear cream or a sharp gray-beige, so the color looks soft, slightly weathered, and low in saturation.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on sprayable parts where a quiet neutral is needed. It fits HVAC vents, return grilles, switch covers, outlet plates, speaker grilles, brackets, shelf supports, picture frames, mailboxes, railings, shutters, and white PVC trim pieces. It can also be useful for baskets, hardware, and small furniture components when a replacement part or accessory needs to coordinate with an existing painted surface.

Because the color is light and restrained, it usually covers more predictably than a vivid accent color, but darker substrates, glossy plastics, and uneven repairs can still show through until enough film builds. Finish changes the reading as well: glossier application can make the tone seem a little deeper, while flatter finishes tend to soften the warm undertone. When matching adjacent parts, differences in substrate, surface texture, and sheen may be easier to notice than the color itself.

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 MSL211 Ash Bark is no longer available anywhere.

MyPerfectColor is able to match all of the Martha Stewart paint colors including MSL211 Ash Bark so you can still find and enjoy the colors you love. MyPerfectColor uses its expert capabilities to recreate the original Martha Stewart MSL211 Ash Bark 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 MSL211 Ash Bark 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™ MSL211 Ash Bark *

Do I need primer before using MSL211 Ash Bark paint?

It depends on the surface, its condition, and the product format you choose. For MSL211 Ash Bark, a primer is not always required, but it can help with adhesion and can improve the final result on many substrates. If the item is bare, patched, glossy, stained, or a difficult material, primer is usually the safer choice.

Check the prep instructions for the specific MyPerfectColor product you are ordering. If you are unsure, prime the test area first and confirm how the color and coverage behave on that surface before painting the full item.

Will MSL211 Ash Bark look the same after I apply it in different lighting?

A match of Martha Stewart MSL211 Ash Bark will be the same matched color, but the finished look can still change based on lighting, sheen, surrounding surfaces, and the material underneath it. A color that looks right in one location may read a little different on a wall, trim piece, metal part, or plastic item once it is installed.

For that reason, judge MSL211 Ash Bark on the actual object and in the actual location when possible. If the item will sit next to an existing painted surface, expect some visible differences from aging, texture, or gloss even when the color match is correct.

Where can I find the SDS for MSL211 Ash Bark paint?

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the MyPerfectColor product chemistry, not the MSL211 Ash Bark color name by itself. You can find MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets here: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm

If you need SDS information for a specific format, confirm that you are looking at the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor product you plan to order.

Can I use MSL211 Ash Bark custom spray paint on switch covers, vents, or hardware?

Yes. MSL211 Ash Bark in custom spray paint is a practical option for small parts and fixtures such as switch covers, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, knobs, trim pieces, and similar items where a sprayed finish is easier than brushing.

For best results, clean the part well, use the proper prep for the material, and apply light coats. Small hardware items can show surface flaws quickly, so test one piece first if the finish or substrate is important.

Can MSL211 Ash Bark be sprayed on plastic parts?

Plastic can be painted, but plastics vary a lot, so MSL211 Ash Bark should be tested on the actual part first. MyPerfectColor spray paint adheres well to most plastics, but some plastics need extra prep or a primer to improve adhesion and reduce the risk of peeling or poor bonding.

If the item is a difficult substrate, use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel before the topcoat when appropriate: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/en/product/995031-Primer-for-Acrylic-Enamel/

How do I find the same color as the Martha Stewart MSL211 Ash Bark in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Martha Stewart MSL211 Ash Bark, 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.
