Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

A match of Dunn Edwards DE 543 M2 Unbelievable reads as a cool blue-green with a strong teal bias. It is medium-dark rather than bright, with enough chroma to stay clear and enough depth to feel anchored rather than airy. MyPerfectColor can make a custom match of this selected brand color for parts that need the same blue-teal character.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be used on vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, railings, mailbox parts, shutters, metal brackets, shelving supports, and PVC trim pieces when those items need to coordinate with a known blue-green reference. It also works well for smaller sprayable pieces such as frames, hardware, fixture covers, and accessory parts where a consistent color across mixed materials matters.

Because this is a relatively dark and moderately vivid color, coverage can vary with what is underneath it. Dark or uneven substrates may show through sooner, so proper surface prep and enough film build are important, and additional coats may be needed over a strong contrast. The final read can also shift with sheen and texture: flatter finishes tend to look a bit softer, while glossier finishes can make the color appear deeper and more saturated. For exterior parts, solid coverage and a suitable finish help keep the color looking even over time.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Dunn Edwards™ DE 543 M2 Unbelievable *

Can I use DE 543 M2 Unbelievable from Dunn Edwards on plastic parts, and what should I do first?

Yes, but plastics vary a lot in surface energy and finish, so test the MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to DE 543 M2 Unbelievable on the actual plastic before you commit. Clean the part well, and use MyPerfectColor primer when you want better adhesion. If the piece is a hard-to-stick plastic, a test panel is the safest way to check adhesion and coverage.

How do I confirm DE 543 M2 Unbelievable is the right Dunn Edwards color before ordering?

Confirm DE 543 M2 Unbelievable from a physical swatch or a known existing painted reference from the original Dunn Edwards color standard, not from a screen alone. MyPerfectColor matches to that original brand color reference, so the best ordering check is making sure the target you want is truly DE 543 M2 Unbelievable before you place the order. The color code does not tell you the finish or product format, so verify those separately.

Which sheen should I choose for DE 543 M2 Unbelievable in MyPerfectColor paint?

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used and how much reflection you want to see on the finished item. Higher gloss is usually easier to clean and more durable-looking, but it also reflects more light and can make surface flaws or prep issues more noticeable. Lower gloss reduces reflection, but the color can read a bit differently than it does in a glossier finish. If the item must match another piece closely, order the same sheen level whenever possible.

What prep is needed before spraying DE 543 M2 Unbelievable on metal or an existing coating?

For metal or a previously coated surface, clean off dirt, grease, and loose material first, then scuff the surface so the new coating can grip. Check for rust, oxidation, or contamination before you spray, because those conditions can affect adhesion and the final appearance. The gloss, texture, and condition of the old coating can also change how DE 543 M2 Unbelievable looks once it is applied, so test a small area if appearance matters.

How long does DE 543 M2 Unbelievable spray paint take to dry, recoat, and cure?

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to DE 543 M2 Unbelievable is typically dry to the touch within minutes, can usually be recoated in one to two hours, and reaches full cure in about two weeks. Dry to the touch does not mean fully hardened, so handle the part carefully between coats and before final use. If the piece will be stressed, stacked, or installed right away, allow the full cure time whenever possible.
