A match of Dutch Boy DB167-3 Cosmetic Coral reads as a muted warm coral with a soft pink-orange base and a noticeable brownish undertone. It is not a clean, bright coral; the color has more depth and restraint, so it tends to look grounded rather than vivid.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be useful on small parts and removable pieces where a warm accent is needed, such as switch plates, vent covers, speaker grilles, shelf brackets, picture frames, lamp bases, planter stands, baskets, and furniture trim. It can also be applied to PVC, shutters, mailbox parts, railings, or other exterior fixtures when a coordinated coral reference needs to carry onto a sprayable surface.
Because this is a mid-tone color with moderate chroma, finish and substrate will affect how warm or subdued it appears. Smooth glossy surfaces can make it read a little deeper and more saturated, while rough or porous materials may soften it. Over darker or uneven bases, expect the color to build in more than one coat for even coverage.

Yes, but the surface condition matters. For a MyPerfectColor match of DB167-3 Cosmetic Coral, the metal or old coating should be clean, dry, and firmly attached before you paint. Remove loose rust, dirt, oil, wax, and any failing paint first, then scuff glossy areas so the new coating can grab.
If you are painting items like railings, fixtures, hardware, vents, or other removable parts, the finish of the old coating can affect the final look of DB167-3 Cosmetic Coral. A sound, well-prepared surface gives you a more predictable result than painting over peeling paint or contaminated metal.
Even when the color match is correct, DB167-3 Cosmetic Coral can read differently after application because of lighting, sheen, placement, texture, and the colors next to it. MyPerfectColor is matching the selected Dutch Boy color reference, but the finished item can still look different on a flat wall, a curved part, a textured surface, or in strong natural light.
If the item will sit beside an older painted surface, the age and wear of the surrounding area can make the new coating appear different even when the color itself is matched. That is why DB167-3 Cosmetic Coral is best evaluated on the actual item and in the lighting where it will be used.
Confirm DB167-3 Cosmetic Coral from a physical Dutch Boy swatch or from a known existing color reference, not from screen viewing alone. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to the selected brand color reference, so the right code and name need to be verified before you order.
If you are matching an existing painted part, use the original reference color whenever possible instead of relying on a photo. A digital image can shift the appearance of DB167-3 Cosmetic Coral, while a physical reference gives you a more dependable target for the custom match.
Coverage depends on the size of the item, the texture of the surface, the hiding power needed, the application method, and how many coats you plan to apply. A typical can of MyPerfectColor spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paint formats usually cover about 400 to 600 square feet, depending on the product and surface.
For DB167-3 Cosmetic Coral, plan carefully if you are painting metal parts, PVC pipe, vents, trim pieces, or other detailed items with edges and contours. Those surfaces often use more paint than a flat, smooth panel because the shape and texture can increase the amount needed.
The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Dutch Boy color name alone. If you are ordering DB167-3 Cosmetic Coral, check the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor format you plan to use, since spray paint and other product types can have different safety documentation.
For the current Safety Data Sheets information, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page and verify the product format against your order. That is the most reliable way to match the SDS to the specific DB167-3 Cosmetic Coral product you are buying.

While we can provide Dutch Boy DB167-3 Cosmetic Coral 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.
