Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application


A match of Pratt and Lambert 13-21 Venetian Gold reads as a medium-deep gold with earthy yellow warmth, a subdued olive-brown undertone, and less brightness than a clean yellow. It has a grounded, slightly muted character rather than a clear, vivid gold.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on small parts and accessories where this kind of warm, grounded gold is needed. It can work on metal brackets, railings, mailboxes, vent covers, speaker grilles, switch plates, cabinet hardware, picture frames, shelving supports, shutters, PVC trim pieces, and other sprayable components that need to coordinate with a known paint reference.

Because this is a moderately deep, fairly chromatic color, surface preparation and finish choice matter. A darker or uneven substrate may show through more easily at the first coat, and sheen differences can change how warm or brown the color appears. Finish build, texture, and the material underneath can all shift the final reading, so even spray coverage is important for a consistent result.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Pratt and Lambert™ 13-21 Venetian Gold *

How should I spray 13-21 Venetian Gold from Pratt and Lambert to reduce runs and get a smoother finish?

For 13-21 Venetian Gold, the best spray results usually come from light, even coats rather than one heavy pass. Keep the spray pattern consistent, overlap each pass evenly, and move at a steady pace so the color builds gradually.

Heavy passes can cause runs, uneven sheen, and a darker or muddier build in the finish. If you are using MyPerfectColor paint matched to 13-21 Venetian Gold, follow the label directions for coat timing and dry time, and let each coat set before adding the next one.

Where can I find the SDS for 13-21 Venetian Gold from Pratt and Lambert?
