A match of ICI Big Chill is a light, cool blue-gray with a soft, low-chroma appearance. It reads as pale and slightly muted rather than crisp or saturated, with enough blue to stay cool and enough gray to keep the color restrained.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Big Chill can be useful on small parts where a light cool tone needs to carry across a separate surface. Common spray-painted uses include HVAC vents, speaker grilles, switch covers, access panels, shelf brackets, railings, PVC trim pieces, hardware, mailboxes, picture frames, and painted accents on furniture or fixtures.

Because the color is fairly light, dark or uneven substrates can show through more easily, so coverage may take additional coats for an even result. Finish and substrate texture can also change how the color reads; glossier finishes may make the cool cast look a little clearer, while matte surfaces can soften the blue-gray effect.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ Big Chill *

How can I confirm ICI Big Chill 344155 before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm ICI Big Chill 344155 from a physical swatch, an existing painted part, or another known color reference from the original brand. Screen images can shift with device settings and lighting, so they are not the safest way to approve the color.

MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to the selected brand color reference, not to a screen view. If your project needs the color to coordinate with an existing ICI Big Chill surface, verify the reference before you place the order.

How much MyPerfectColor paint matched to ICI Big Chill 344155 should I order?

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. As a general guide, a spray paint can covers about 20 square feet with one coat, while other paint formats typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet.

For ICI Big Chill 344155, plan extra material if the surface is rough, dark, porous, or likely to need more than one coat. If you are coating small parts, fixtures, or accessories, it is better to estimate coverage by the actual object size rather than by room size.

Can I use MyPerfectColor paint matched to ICI Big Chill 344155 on plastic parts?

Yes, but plastics vary widely, so test on the actual material first. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but some plastics need different prep or a primer to improve adhesion.

For better results on difficult plastic substrates, use the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel before applying a match of ICI Big Chill 344155. That helps reduce adhesion risk and gives you a better chance of a uniform finish on the finished part.

What should I confirm before ordering a custom match of ICI Big Chill 344155 from MyPerfectColor?

Before ordering, confirm the ICI Big Chill 344155 color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen you need, and the quantity. Custom-made color orders are made to your selected reference, so choosing the wrong combination can create avoidable problems.

Custom color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to verify the target color and the format you need before you checkout. That is especially important if you are matching a brand color for a specific fixture, part, or replacement item.

What prep is needed before applying MyPerfectColor paint matched to ICI Big Chill 344155 on metal or an existing coating?

Clean the surface first, then scuff it if needed so the coating can bond properly. If there is rust, loose paint, oil, or other contamination, remove it before you apply a match of ICI Big Chill 344155.

On metal and over old coatings, the condition of the surface matters. Gloss, texture, aging, and patchy wear can all change how the finished color reads, even when the color match itself is correct.

How do I find the same color as the ICI Big Chill in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Big Chill, 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.
