A match of Valspar CI102 Hearth is a medium-deep warm brown with a muted red-orange undertone and an earthy, slightly clay-like character. It reads as a subdued warm color rather than a bright or clean brown, with enough depth to feel substantial on finished parts.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on shutters, railings, mailbox posts, vent covers, switch plates, speaker grilles, shelf brackets, picture frames, cabinet hardware, and other small parts where a warm brown finish needs to carry across metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated surfaces. It also fits PVC pipe, downspout accessories, and exterior trim pieces when you want the part to coordinate with a known paint reference rather than stand out as a separate material.

With an LRV around 18, this color is fairly dark in finished form, so the substrate and paint film build can affect how deep it reads. Coverage is usually more straightforward than with brighter colors, but a contrasting undercoat can still influence the result, especially on light or uneven surfaces. On smooth metal or plastic, sheen and surface prep can make texture or repair marks more noticeable.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Valspar™ CI102 Hearth *

Does Valspar CI102 Hearth need primer before I use a MyPerfectColor match of this color?

Primer may be needed for a MyPerfectColor custom-matched paint made to match Valspar CI102 Hearth, depending on the substrate, surface condition, and the paint type you choose. A primer never hurts and can improve adhesion, but it is not always required.

If the project surface is difficult, uneven, or previously coated, check the prep guidance for the selected product before you order so you know whether primer is recommended for that application.

How much MyPerfectColor paint matched to Valspar CI102 Hearth should I order for my project?

Coverage for a match of Valspar CI102 Hearth depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats are needed. For spray paint, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paint formats typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet.

If the surface is textured, porous, or shows strong contrast, plan for additional material so you do not run short before the job is finished.

What dry time should I expect for MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Valspar CI102 Hearth?

For MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Valspar CI102 Hearth, dry-to-touch time, recoat time, and full cure time are different steps. Spray paint is usually dry to the touch within minutes, can often be recoated in 1 to 2 hours, and is fully cured in about 2 weeks.
