Match of ICI™ Tender Aria *

Custom orders matched to ICI Tender Aria should be confirmed carefully before you place them. Verify the brand color reference, product format, sheen, and quantity first, because MyPerfectColor custom-matched paint is made to order and custom-made color orders are not returnable or refundable.

Also keep in mind that MyPerfectColor is supplying its own paint matched to the selected ICI color reference, not the original ICI paint product.

Plan coverage by the size and condition of the item, not just by the color name. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paints typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet per coat, but real coverage depends on surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need.

Because Tender Aria is a very light color, you may need extra material if you are coating a dark, rough, or uneven surface.

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used and cleaned. For a match of ICI Tender Aria, sheen affects durability, reflectivity, cleanup, and how the finished coating reads on the item.

Higher gloss usually makes the same color look different than flat or matte, so confirm the sheen before ordering, especially for removable parts like vents, pipe, railings, hardware, or fixtures.

Before applying a match of ICI Tender Aria to metal or an existing coating, clean off dirt, grease, wax, dust, and chalk, then address any rust or contamination. If the old coating is sound, lightly scuffing it can help the new paint grip.

If the existing finish is peeling, cracking, or poorly bonded, fix or remove it first. The condition, gloss, and texture of the old surface can change how Tender Aria looks after it dries.

Plastics vary a lot, so test a match of ICI Tender Aria on the actual part before painting the full item. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but low-energy or unfamiliar plastics may need better prep.

Using the MyPerfectColor Primer for Acrylic Enamel can improve adhesion and reduce the risk of poor bonding on difficult substrates.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the ICI Tender Aria in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

Please note that if your material is not new then the paint may not work for touch up as your material has aged and is likely different than it was when new. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. If you need a touch up application, send us a part and we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

MyPerfectColor offers custom spray paint matched to ICI Tender Aria which enables you to conveniently achieve a professional spray-smooth finish. It is difficult to gauge spray paint coverage because it depends on how you apply it and the amount of overspray, but generally the 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use. This paint sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Tender Aria, 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.
