A match of ICI Oriental Poppy is a warm orange with a noticeable earthy cast, leaning more toward brown than a clean citrus orange. It reads as medium depth rather than pale, with enough chroma to feel vivid without pushing into neon territory.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on small parts where a warm orange finish needs to be repeated cleanly: vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, railings, mailbox parts, shelving, frames, hardware, and decorative fixtures. It can also work on coated metal, plastic, wood, or wicker items after proper preparation, especially when you are refinishing a complete piece or removable component rather than trying to blend into an aged surface.
Because this color has strong chroma, coverage may take additional coats for even results, especially over dark, patchy, or porous substrates. Finish and film build can change how deep or muted it looks, and sheen differences can make surface texture more noticeable. On exterior parts, a vivid warm color can show weathering sooner than quieter neutrals, so prep and full coverage matter.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ Oriental Poppy *
Where can I find the SDS for ICI Oriental Poppy, color 344779?
The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint product matched to ICI Oriental Poppy, not to the color name alone. For safety and compliance review, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the specific product line.
If you need the SDS before ordering or before use on a jobsite, confirm the exact MyPerfectColor format you plan to buy, since the document is product-specific.
Why can ICI Oriental Poppy look different after application even when the match is correct?
Once a match of ICI Oriental Poppy is applied, lighting, sheen, spray build, surface texture, and nearby colors can all change how it reads on the finished item. The same color can look slightly different on metal, plastic, wood, or a previously coated surface.
If the new coating will sit next to an existing painted area, aging and gloss differences can be visible even when the color match is right. Plan for the finished part to be viewed in its actual location, under its actual lighting.
How much ICI Oriental Poppy do I need for my project?
Coverage for ICI Oriental Poppy depends on the size of the item, the texture of the surface, how much hiding is needed, the application method, and how many coats you plan to apply. The color itself does not determine coverage; the surface and process do.
As a planning guide, a typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other MyPerfectColor paints typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet, but your actual result may be lower if the surface is rough, porous, or dark underneath.
Can I order ICI Oriental Poppy as spray paint for switch covers, vents, or hardware?
Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to ICI Oriental Poppy is a practical choice for small parts such as switch covers, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, knobs, and similar items where a smooth sprayed finish is useful.
For the best result, make sure the part is properly cleaned and prepared, then apply the coating in thin, even coats. This helps the matched color lay down more consistently on metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated parts.
How do I choose a finish for ICI Oriental Poppy when ordering?
Choose the finish based on how the part will be used, cleaned, and viewed. Sheen affects durability, reflectivity, and how the matched color appears on the finished item, so the same ICI Oriental Poppy match can look a little different in different finishes.
If the item will be handled often or needs easier cleanup, a more durable finish may be preferable. If you are trying to coordinate with an existing surface, use the finish that best fits the surrounding item instead of choosing only by the color name.

How do I find the same color as the ICI Oriental Poppy in a different company?
While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Oriental Poppy, 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.
