Match of ICI™ Dusty Canyon *

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a custom match of Dusty Canyon by ICI for plastic items, but plastics vary a lot, so the result depends on the actual part and how it is prepared. A test on the real material is the safest way to confirm adhesion and appearance before coating the full item.

For better adhesion, use the MyPerfectColor primer for difficult surfaces. That is especially important when the plastic is smooth, flexible, or low-energy, because those surfaces can be harder for paint to grip.

Confirm Dusty Canyon by ICI from a physical swatch or a known existing color reference whenever possible. Screen color can shift with brightness, device settings, and display type, so it should not be the only reference used for ordering.

MyPerfectColor uses the original brand color standard as the target for the match. If you already know that Dusty Canyon is the color you need, verify the reference first, then order the MyPerfectColor paint matched to that color.

For metal or a previously coated surface, start by cleaning off dirt, grease, and loose material. If the surface has rust, contamination, or a failing old coating, those issues should be addressed before painting because they can affect adhesion and final appearance.

Light scuffing usually helps give the new coating a better surface to grab. Keep in mind that gloss, texture, and the condition of the old coating can change how Dusty Canyon by ICI reads once it is applied, even when the color match itself is correct.

Coverage for Dusty Canyon by ICI depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and the number of coats you need. A spray paint can typically covers about 20 square feet with one coat, while other paint formats usually cover about 400 to 600 square feet.

If the substrate is rough, porous, dark, or uneven, plan for more material than a smooth, light, or already well-covered surface would require. For the most reliable estimate, size the order to the actual part or area you plan to coat, plus extra for additional coats.

Yes. Dusty Canyon by ICI is a practical choice for custom spray paint projects on baskets, frames, shelving, furniture accents, decor pieces, and similar items where spray application is the easiest way to coat the surface.

For these projects, the main decision is usually whether the item can be cleaned and prepped well enough for good adhesion. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Dusty Canyon gives you a way to coordinate small or removable parts to a known color reference without needing the original brand paint.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the ICI Dusty Canyon 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.

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 MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Dusty Canyon, 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.
