A match of ICI Pate Shell is a warm, light-to-medium tan with a peachy-golden cast. It reads softer than a clear orange-beige, with moderate chroma and an earthy character rather than a clean yellow or gray neutral.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, outlet plates, frames, shelving brackets, mailbox hardware, shutters, railings, PVC trim pieces, baskets, and furniture accents. It is a practical choice when you need a warm, subdued color on small parts, removable components, or detailed surfaces that need to coordinate with an existing color reference.
Because this is a medium-light color with some saturation, it may show dark substrate color or surface variation more readily than a deeper tone. Over dark plastic, patched metal, or unevenly prepared surfaces, coverage may take additional coats. Finish and film build can also change the way the peach and golden undertones read, so sheen consistency and good surface prep matter.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ Pate Shell *
Can I return MyPerfectColor paint matched to ICI Pate Shell 344804 if I order the wrong sheen or quantity?
Custom-matched paint orders are made to your selected reference, so they should be checked carefully before you buy. For ICI Pate Shell 344804, confirm the brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity before placing the order.
Because custom color matches are made to order, they are not returnable or refundable. Verifying the exact Pate Shell reference first helps reduce the risk of ordering a paint that does not fit your project.
What kinds of projects work well with MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to ICI Pate Shell 344804?
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to ICI Pate Shell 344804 is useful when you need a repeatable color on small or awkward items that are easier to spray than brush. Common examples include trim details, fixtures, railings, vents, pipes, hardware, accessories, and other removable parts.
It is also practical for project parts that need to coordinate with a larger painted area in the same Pate Shell color. If the item is small, detailed, or hard to coat evenly by hand, spray format is often the more efficient choice.
Will MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to ICI Pate Shell 344804 adhere to plastic parts?
MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but plastics vary a lot, so testing on the actual part is important before you commit to the full project. A small test helps you confirm adhesion and finish on the exact material you are painting.
If you want better adhesion on a difficult plastic, use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel before applying the Pate Shell 344804 color coat. That is especially helpful when the surface is smooth, low-energy, or otherwise harder to bond to.
How do I choose the right sheen for MyPerfectColor match of ICI Pate Shell 344804?
Choose sheen based on how the item will be used, how much cleaning it needs, and how you want the finished coating to behave in real use. Lower-sheen finishes usually reflect less light, while higher-sheen finishes are typically easier to wipe clean and can look more reflective on the finished part.
Sheen also changes how ICI Pate Shell 344804 reads after application. The same color can look a little different on a matte, satin, or gloss surface, so pick the finish that matches the project requirements rather than choosing by color name alone.
How do I confirm the correct ICI Pate Shell 344804 reference before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?
Confirm ICI Pate Shell 344804 from a physical swatch or another known original color reference, not from a computer screen alone. Screens can shift how the color looks, so on-screen viewing is not a reliable way to approve the target color.
MyPerfectColor matches the original brand color standard, so the most important step is making sure Pate Shell 344804 is the exact reference you want before ordering. That verification helps avoid buying a match of the wrong color target.

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