Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

A match of ICI Freshen Up reads as a light yellow-green with a clear, lively character. The color has a strong yellow base with a distinct green cast, so it feels brighter than an olive and less pure than a yellow.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be used on small parts where a crisp yellow-green finish is needed, such as vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, shelving brackets, wire baskets, hardware, mailboxes, rail components, and trim pieces. It is also practical for PVC, display parts, and other removable items that need to coordinate with a known brand color target.

Because the color is fairly vivid, it may hide less efficiently than a muted neutral and can take extra coats for even coverage, especially over dark, patched, or uneven substrates. Its light value can also let show-through appear more easily if the underlying surface is not sealed well. Surface texture, film build, and sheen can change how yellow or green the color reads, so preparation and uniform application matter.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ Freshen Up *

Can I order ICI Freshen Up 344454 as custom spray paint for switch covers, vents, and other small hardware?

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make spray paint matched to ICI Freshen Up 344454 for small parts like switch covers, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, and similar items.

Spray paint is often the practical choice when you want a smoother, more even finish on removable or hard-to-brush parts. Make sure the part is cleaned and prepped for the material before painting so the match and finish have the best chance of reading consistently.

Is a custom-made match of ICI Freshen Up 344454 returnable if I order the wrong sheen or quantity?

No. Custom-made paint matched to ICI Freshen Up 344454 should be chosen carefully because custom color orders are not returnable or refundable.

Before you place the order, confirm the brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need. That helps avoid ordering the wrong version of the match for your project.

How should I choose a sheen for ICI Freshen Up 344454 when ordering MyPerfectColor spray paint?

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used and how much shine you want on the finished item. With ICI Freshen Up 344454, a glossier finish will reflect more light and can make the color read a bit differently than a flatter finish.

If the part needs easier cleaning and more durability, a higher sheen may be practical. If you want less reflection, a lower sheen can help, but it may also show wear differently. The key is to select the finish that fits the item, because sheen changes the final appearance of the matched color.

What is the best way to spray ICI Freshen Up 344454 on small parts for a smoother finish?

Use several light, even coats of MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to ICI Freshen Up 344454 instead of one heavy coat. Keep your passes consistent, overlap each pass slightly, and follow the can directions for recoat timing.

Heavy coats can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking build. Light coats help the color develop more evenly and usually give better results on hardware, grilles, trim pieces, and other small items.

Do I need primer for ICI Freshen Up 344454 on plastic or other difficult surfaces?

Plastic and other difficult substrates can vary a lot, so it is smart to test the actual material before committing to the full project. MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to ICI Freshen Up 344454 sticks well to most plastics, but adhesion can still depend on the specific part and its surface condition.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer can help improve adhesion on challenging surfaces. If the item is plastic, low-energy, or otherwise hard to coat, prep and a test application are important before you finish the entire part.

How do I find the same color as the ICI Freshen Up in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Freshen Up, 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.
