Match of Behr™ 8497 Ice Grey *

Confirm 8497 Ice Grey from a physical Behr swatch, a printed color standard, or a known existing painted sample. Screen color can shift with device settings, so it is not a reliable final reference. MyPerfectColor matches its paint to the selected brand color reference, not to an aged or faded surface, so verify the target first if you need the closest match to the original 8497 Ice Grey standard.

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used and cleaned, not just on the color name. The same 8497 Ice Grey match can look different in flat, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss because sheen changes reflectivity and the way the color reads on the finished surface. If the part will be handled or wiped often, a more durable, easier-to-clean finish may be more practical; if you want less reflection, a lower-sheen finish is usually the better ordering choice.

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product formula or chemistry, not to the 8497 Ice Grey color name by itself. Use the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor paint format you plan to order, such as spray paint or another product type.

Use light, even coats and keep a consistent spray distance while moving smoothly across the part. Overlap each pass slightly so 8497 Ice Grey builds uniformly instead of pooling in one area. Heavy passes can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking build, especially on small parts, edges, or detailed surfaces. If the piece is awkward or removable, custom spray paint matched to 8497 Ice Grey is usually the easiest format to apply evenly.

Once 8497 Ice Grey is applied, the final look can shift with lighting, sheen, texture, and what it sits next to. The same MyPerfectColor match can appear slightly different on metal, plastic, wood, or a previously coated part because each substrate reflects light differently. If the item will be viewed beside an existing painted surface, use the intended finish and check the result under the lighting where it will live before committing to a full project.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use.

The MyPerfectColor 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat. Keep in mind that it is difficult to gauge spray paint need as the coverage is highly dependent on how it is applied. Learn more about how spray paint works at MyPerfectColor.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Behr 8497 Ice Grey in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

Please note that if your material is not new then the paint may not work for touch up as your material has aged and is likely different than it was when new. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. If you need a touch up application, send us a part and we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

While we can provide Behr 8497 Ice Grey in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another brand.

However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the brand 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.
