Match of Duron™ DHC 036 Tailor's Buff *

If you are painting plastic with a match of DHC 036 Tailor's Buff, test the actual part first because plastics vary a lot. Some plastics accept paint more easily than others, and low-energy plastics usually benefit from primer.

MyPerfectColor spray paint is made to match the selected brand color, but adhesion still depends on the substrate and prep. Use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel to improve adhesion when the plastic is difficult or the first test does not hold well.

Choose the sheen based on how the item will be used and how much reflection you want on the finished part. Flatter finishes usually reduce glare and can be less demanding about surface flaws, while higher gloss finishes are easier to wipe clean but make the surface look more reflective.

The same match of DHC 036 Tailor's Buff can read differently in flat, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss, so the sheen is part of the final appearance. If the item needs to coordinate with other coated parts, match the sheen as closely as possible.

For a match of DHC 036 Tailor's Buff in spray paint, use light, even coats and keep the can moving with steady overlap. It is better to build coverage gradually than to try to cover in one heavy pass.

Heavy passes can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking build, especially on small parts or textured surfaces. Let each coat flash off as directed for the product before adding the next coat.

A match of DHC 036 Tailor's Buff can still look different after application depending on lighting, viewing angle, surface texture, and the colors next to it. Daylight and indoor lighting can make the same coated part read a little differently.

If the item will sit beside an existing painted surface, check it in the actual location before coating the full part. That gives you a better read on how the finish and surroundings affect the final appearance.

Before ordering a custom-made match of DHC 036 Tailor's Buff, confirm the exact brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need. Those details help avoid ordering the wrong custom match for your project.

Custom color orders are made to your selection, so they are not returnable or refundable. It is best to verify the color reference and product choice before you place the order.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Duron DHC 036 Tailor's Buff, 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.
