Match of Home Hardware™ 6D1-6 Balmoral *

Finish changes how much light reflects off the coated item, so the same 6D1-6 Balmoral color can look a little different in matte, satin, or gloss. A higher sheen usually makes the color read more reflective and can make surface texture or small defects more visible.

MyPerfectColor matches the color reference, but the final look still depends on the finish and the surface you paint. If appearance matters on the actual part, test the matched paint on that same substrate before coating the full item.

For a better result with a MyPerfectColor match of 6D1-6 Balmoral, start by cleaning the surface and removing dirt, dust, oil, wax, or grease. Make sure the part is fully dry before painting.

If the surface is smooth or glossy, light scuffing can help the coating grip better where appropriate. Mask off areas you do not want painted, and do a small test on the actual item first so you can confirm adhesion and appearance before painting the full part.

Choose the finish based on the part's use and the look you need, not just the color name. With 6D1-6 Balmoral, lower sheen finishes usually hide surface texture better, while higher sheen finishes reflect more light and may show more of the substrate.

If you are matching a nearby painted part, try to use the same sheen when possible because gloss level can change how the color reads. For a MyPerfectColor match, the finish is a practical ordering choice that affects the final appearance and cleanup, so confirm it before you place the order.

Confirm 6D1-6 Balmoral from a physical swatch, original brand reference, or a known existing painted sample rather than from a screen alone. Displayed color can shift by device and lighting.

MyPerfectColor makes its own paint matched to the selected brand color reference, so the most important step is making sure 6D1-6 Balmoral is the exact target you want. If you are matching an older painted surface, remember that age, wear, and sheen can make the existing item look different from the original color standard.

Use light, even coats of MyPerfectColor paint matched to 6D1-6 Balmoral and keep the spray movement consistent so the film builds gradually. Hold a practical distance from the surface, overlap each pass, and avoid heavy passes that can cause runs, uneven sheen, or color build-up.

On darker or contrasting substrates, build coverage in several coats instead of trying to cover in one wet pass. A small test spray on the actual material is the safest way to check flow, coverage, and final appearance before you finish the full item.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Home Hardware 6D1-6 Balmoral 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.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Home Hardware 6D1-6 Balmoral, 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.
