Match of CertainTeed™ 24 Desert Tan *

Yes, if you choose a MyPerfectColor product that explicitly says Original Material Match. For CertainTeed 24 Desert Tan, that is the touch-up path because it includes a sheen match. It is the right choice for factory-finished siding that needs repair after shipping damage, installation damage, service work, or a cut edge.

If the part is an older installed surface, the repair may still read differently because age, weathering, chalking, texture, and substrate can change how the color appears.

A match of CertainTeed 24 Desert Tan is a factory color reference, but an installed siding surface can change over time. Sun exposure, weathering, chalking, sheen shift, texture, and batch variation can all make the existing surface look different from the original reference.

MyPerfectColor can make a match of CertainTeed 24 Desert Tan, but a close color match does not guarantee an invisible repair on aged material. If the area is highly visible or the surface has changed a lot, an existing-part or site-specific sample is often the safer reference.

For direct touch up on factory-finished materials in CertainTeed 24 Desert Tan, choose Original Material Match when it is offered because it includes a sheen match. That is the format intended for touch up after damage or field work.

Other MyPerfectColor options, including water-based housepaint, urethane, epoxy, spray paint, paint pens, or brush-in-cap bottles, can still be color-matched, but they are better suited to separate parts, accessories, or broader repainting where a sheen-matched touch up is not the goal.

A match of CertainTeed 24 Desert Tan is a siding color reference, so it is useful when a replacement board, trim piece, soffit, fascia, shutter, or other nearby exterior part needs to coordinate with the existing siding system.

If the job is a direct touch up on the factory-finished siding surface, use Original Material Match. If the job is painting a separate replacement part or an accessory that must blend with the siding, a MyPerfectColor match of CertainTeed 24 Desert Tan can be the right order as long as you choose the product type that fits the part and application method.

Before ordering CertainTeed 24 Desert Tan, confirm the exact brand color, the product type, the finish or sheen requirement, and the quantity you need. That helps avoid ordering a format that is not right for the job.

Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to verify the reference and the application before purchase. If you need touch up on factory-finished siding, make sure the order is for Original Material Match.

It depends. MyPerfectColor matches the color of the CertainTeed 24 Desert Tan but may not match the sheen. If you see Custom Sheen as a sheen option, this means we also match the sheen of the material, otherwise you would need to pick the closest sheen available. However, keep in mind that our version of the CertainTeed 24 Desert Tan is based on matching an official CertainTeed color sample. The color and sheen of your specific CertainTeed parts may vary. If your material is not new and has been exposed to the weather, then it is likely that the color has changed over time. MyPerfectColor samples not been exposed to sunlight and weather. If you need a touch up application, you may need to send us a part so we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

Please note that if your existing materials are not new and you are trying to touch up, they will have aged and are likely different now than they were when new. MyPerfectColor will be sending paint matching the sample at our facility which has not aged the same as your materials and may also be different due to other factors such as variations in manufacturing processes. If your match is critical, you may consider sending a part of your materials for precise color matching. Learn more about our color matching services.
