Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application


A match of ICI Zesty Lime reads as a yellow-green with a clear lime lean and an olive undertone. It has noticeable chroma, but the color is not neon; the medium depth gives it more body than a pale spring green and keeps the look fairly grounded.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected ICI color can be useful on vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, brackets, shelf supports, mailboxes, shutters, PVC fittings, and small hardware pieces. It also works for removable parts and accessory components where a repeatable brand-color match matters more than brush application.

Because the color is fairly vivid, coverage may take extra attention on darker or uneven surfaces. A strong underlying color can show through sooner than with a neutral, and finish choice can shift the read: glossier surfaces tend to look cleaner and more saturated, while textured substrates can mute the yellow-green edge. If the new coating will sit beside an older painted part, differences in sheen, aging, or texture may still be visible. Outdoor exposure can also be harder on vivid colors than on quieter tones.

How do I find the same color as the ICI Zesty Lime in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Zesty Lime, 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.

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.
