A match of ICI Gold Strike reads as a warm, medium-light gold tan with a brown-yellow undertone. It has moderate chroma, so it looks colored and earthy rather than muted gray, but it is not a bright gold. The value is light enough to read clearly while still carrying some depth.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Gold Strike can be useful on sprayable parts such as metal brackets, shelf supports, vent covers, switch plates, picture frames, mailbox hardware, speaker grilles, railings, and PVC trim pieces. It also works for small fixtures, furniture accents, and removable accessories where a consistent sprayed finish matters more than brush marks.

This kind of mid-light, warm color usually covers more easily than a very pale tint, but the yellow-brown base can still reveal uneven substrates, dark undercoats, or patchy prep if the film build is thin. Finish also affects the read: a flatter finish can make it look softer, while a glossier finish can make the color appear deeper and more reflective. For the cleanest result, surface preparation and even coverage matter.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ Gold Strike *

Where do I find the SDS for ICI Gold Strike 344481?

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint product and chemistry, not to the ICI Gold Strike name by itself. For this color match, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page at https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm.

How will finish affect MyPerfectColor's match of ICI Gold Strike 344481?

Finish changes how the matched coating reflects light, so the same Gold Strike color can read differently in flat, satin, gloss, or another sheen. If you are trying to coordinate a part, fixture, or accessory, choose the finish that matches the surrounding surface or the performance you need, since sheen is part of how the color will appear after application.

What should I confirm before ordering a custom match of ICI Gold Strike 344481?

Before ordering, confirm the color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the finish, and the quantity you need.

Do I need special prep to apply ICI Gold Strike 344481 over metal or an existing coating?

Yes. Clean off dirt, oil, and contamination first, then scuff sound glossy surfaces so the new coating can bond better.

How do I find the same color as the ICI Gold Strike in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Gold Strike, 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.
