Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application


A match of ICI Electric Avenue reads as a light, bright yellow with a slight yellow-green cast rather than an orange one. It has a clear, lively character and a medium-light depth, so it tends to look more vivid than muted while still staying on the lighter side of the spectrum.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Electric Avenue can be a practical choice for small sprayable parts that need a strong yellow finish on metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated surfaces. It is well suited to switch covers, vent grilles, speaker grilles, brackets, shelving accents, mailbox details, shutters, trim inserts, and display or kiosk components where the color needs to read cleanly on compact, hard-to-brush surfaces.

Because this is a vivid, light color, coverage may be less forgiving over dark, stained, or uneven substrates and could take additional coats for a uniform result. Surface texture and finish also affect how the color reads: smoother, glossier parts usually show the yellow more clearly, while rougher surfaces can soften it. For exterior use, the color may also be more sensitive to weathering than a quieter neutral, so film build and preparation matter.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ Electric Avenue *

Can I order Electric Avenue by ICI as spray paint for crafts and accessories?

Yes. MyPerfectColor can supply a custom spray paint matched to Electric Avenue by ICI for items like baskets, frames, shelving, decor pieces, hardware, and other small parts where spray application is practical.

If your goal is to coordinate a removable or detailed object to a known color reference, spray paint is often the easiest format because it can reach edges and contours more evenly than brushing. This is a match of Electric Avenue, not the original ICI paint product.

What surface prep should I do before applying Electric Avenue by ICI spray paint?

Start by cleaning off dirt, grease, wax, and loose residue. On smooth or glossy surfaces, light scuffing can help when appropriate, then mask adjacent areas and test on the actual surface before coating the full item.

This is especially important for vents, switch covers, brackets, PVC, and furniture accents because the substrate can affect adhesion and how Electric Avenue reads after application. Good prep helps the finished part look more consistent.

How long does Electric Avenue by ICI spray paint take to dry, recoat, and handle?

Spray paint matched to Electric Avenue is typically dry to touch within minutes, should be recoated in one to two hours, and reaches full cure in about two weeks.

Plan handling separately from dry to touch. A part can feel dry before it is ready for hard use, so items like frames, grilles, mailboxes, or accessories should be left alone long enough to avoid soft film, imprinting, or uneven build.

How much Electric Avenue by ICI spray paint do I need for my project?

A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but the real amount depends on the size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats Electric Avenue needs on your item.

Smooth, small parts often use less than expected, while textured baskets, grilles, or weathered surfaces can use more. If you are coating multiple accessories or one larger fixture, estimate by total surface area and plan extra for testing and for any missed edges.

Will Electric Avenue by ICI look the same in matte and gloss finishes?

No. The same Electric Avenue color can look different in matte versus gloss because finish changes light reflection and perceived depth.

MyPerfectColor matches the color reference, but the selected finish still affects how it appears on the finished object. If you are coating a cover, rail, grille, or decorative part, choose the finish based on the item's use and expect the visual result to shift even when the color code is the same.

How do I find the same color as the ICI Electric Avenue in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Electric Avenue, 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.
