Match of ICI™ Cuddle *

MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets for Cuddle by ICI are on the Safety Data Sheets page for the product family: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm. The SDS applies to the MyPerfectColor paint and its chemistry, not to the color name alone.

Primer depends on the substrate, its condition, and the paint type you are using. A primer usually helps adhesion and, as a rule of thumb, it never hurts, but it is not always required.

For items like PVC pipe, vents, metal trim, plastic parts, or previously coated surfaces, check the prep guidance for the specific MyPerfectColor product you plan to use before you order or apply it.

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats the job needs. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paint formats usually cover about 400 to 600 square feet, but real coverage can vary.

If you are painting small parts like shutters, grilles, hardware, brackets, or pipe, plan for the shape of the item and any extra coats needed for full coverage.

Confirm Cuddle by ICI from a physical swatch or a known existing color reference, not from a screen alone. MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color target, so the best starting point is the actual color reference you want to reproduce.

If the new coating will sit next to an existing painted surface, a test sample can help reduce risk from aging, sheen differences, or substrate differences.

Use light, even coats, keep a consistent spray distance, and overlap passes slightly. Avoid heavy passes, which can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy color build.

This is especially important on items like vents, speaker grilles, access covers, hardware, railings, and other small parts where spray application is practical and the finish is easy to see.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the ICI Cuddle 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.

MyPerfectColor offers custom spray paint matched to ICI Cuddle which enables you to conveniently achieve a professional spray-smooth finish. It is difficult to gauge spray paint coverage because it depends on how you apply it and the amount of overspray, but generally the 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use. This paint sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Cuddle, 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.
