Match of ICI™ Cosmic Blue *

Apply MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Cosmic Blue (ICI 344287) in light, even coats rather than one heavy pass. Keep the can moving, overlap each pass slightly, and hold a consistent distance so the film builds evenly.

Heavy coats can cause runs, slower dry time, and a blotchy color build. On items like trim, hardware, vents, speaker grilles, baskets, or pipe, it is usually better to use several thin coats and let each coat flash as directed on the label before adding the next one.

Confirm Cosmic Blue (ICI 344287) from a physical swatch, an approved sample, or a known existing painted reference from the original brand before you place the order. Screen viewing alone is not reliable enough to confirm the target color.

MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to the selected brand color reference, so the most important step is making sure the original color target is correct. If you are matching an installed part, compare it to a physical reference in the lighting where it will be used.

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used, cleaned, and viewed. The same Cosmic Blue (ICI 344287) color can look different in a low-sheen finish than in a higher-sheen finish because reflectivity changes how the color reads.

If durability and easier cleaning matter more, a higher-sheen finish may be practical. If you want less reflection, a lower-sheen finish may be a better fit. For a color match on a new part, the key is to choose the finish that matches the project needs, not just the color name.

Yes, but surface prep matters. For metal or a previously coated part, clean off dirt, grease, and other contamination, then scuff glossy intact areas so the new coating can bond properly. Remove loose paint and address rust or corrosion before painting.

The condition of the old coating can affect the final look of Cosmic Blue (ICI 344287), including gloss, texture, and how evenly the color lays down. If the surface is unstable or incompatible, use the right primer or prep system for that substrate before applying the matched paint.

Cosmic Blue (ICI 344287) is the selected brand color reference, but the finished appearance can still shift with lighting, sheen, surrounding surfaces, and the size or shape of the item. A sprayed part can read differently than the same color on a wall, a small fixture, or a textured surface.

If the color has already been approved from a physical reference, the next step is to apply and view it in the lighting where the item will live. That helps you judge the final appearance of the MyPerfectColor match on the actual object instead of relying on screen color alone.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Cosmic Blue, 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.
