A match of Dutch Boy DC028 Charleston is a light, warm peach-pink with a soft coral undertone. It reads muted rather than bright, with a soft blush character that stays gentle on small painted parts.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on small items where a warm, coordinated finish is needed. It is a practical choice for switch covers, vent grilles, speaker grilles, lamp parts, picture frames, shelf brackets, hardware, baskets, mailbox details, and other trim pieces that spray well after proper preparation.
Because this is a light color, it can show dark or uneven substrates more easily if the surface is not primed or already close in tone. Sheen and film build also affect how the peach-coral cast reads, so a flatter finish tends to look softer while a glossier finish can make the warmth more apparent. On plastic, metal, or previously coated parts, adhesion and surface prep matter more than the color itself.

Confirm DC028 Charleston from a physical swatch, an approved sample, or another known original Dutch Boy color reference rather than from a phone, monitor, or printed image. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to the selected brand color reference, so the target color should be verified before you order.
If you are matching an existing item, make sure you are comparing to the actual color you want to reproduce, not to a faded or altered surface nearby. That helps you order the right DC028 Charleston match the first time.
Before ordering DC028 Charleston, confirm the color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format you need, the sheen, and the quantity. Custom color matches are made to order, so it is important to choose the right version of DC028 Charleston before you submit the order.
Because these are custom-made matches, they are not returnable or refundable, so the safest approach is to verify the brand color target and product details first.
Yes, DC028 Charleston can be ordered as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for many plastic projects, but plastics vary a lot in surface energy and finish. That means the same DC028 Charleston match can behave differently from one plastic part to another.
For best results, test on the actual plastic first and use the MyPerfectColor primer recommended for acrylic enamel when adhesion is a concern. Proper prep matters more on plastics than on many other surfaces.
A match of Dutch Boy DC028 Charleston works well in MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for projects where you want a part or accessory to match a known Dutch Boy color reference. Common uses include baskets, frames, shelving, decor pieces, furniture accents, hardware, and other small items that are easier to spray than to brush.
This is useful when the goal is to coordinate a removable or smaller object to the DC028 Charleston color target rather than repaint an entire room or exterior surface.
Before applying DC028 Charleston, clean the surface, remove dust, oil, and other contamination, and scuff any sound glossy coating so the new paint can grip properly. If there is rust, loose paint, or failing finish, address that first.
The final look of a DC028 Charleston match can change with the condition of the old coating, the texture of the substrate, and the amount of surface prep. A test piece is a good way to confirm adhesion and appearance on the actual metal part before you paint the full item.
MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use.

While we can provide Dutch Boy DC028 Charleston in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another brand.
However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the brand 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.
