Match of Dunn Edwards™ SP 25 Briar *

Primer depends on the surface, its condition, and the paint type you are using. A primer is often helpful on bare, repaired, porous, glossy, or uneven substrates because it can improve adhesion and help the finish build more evenly. It is not always required, but it usually does not hurt when the prep guidance for the selected product allows it.

If you are coating metal, plastic, wood, or a previously painted item, check the prep notes for the exact MyPerfectColor product you are ordering. The right primer step can matter more than the color itself when you want a match of SP 25 Briar to bond well and look consistent on the finished part.

Use light, even coats rather than trying to cover in one heavy pass. Hold the can or sprayer at a consistent distance, overlap each pass slightly, and keep the motion steady so the color builds uniformly. Heavy coats can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a darker-looking wet edge, especially with a match of SP 25 Briar.

This approach is useful on items like trim pieces, vents, speaker grilles, pipe covers, mailboxes, brackets, or other parts where spray application is practical. If the selected product instructions call for additional coats, let each coat flash or dry as directed before applying the next one.

Confirm the target color from a physical swatch, an approved sample, or a known existing reference from Dunn Edwards rather than relying on a screen image alone. Screen color can shift with lighting and device settings, so the safest ordering decision is to verify the actual color reference before you buy a match of SP 25 Briar.

MyPerfectColor matches to the selected brand color reference, not to a computer display. If you are coordinating removable parts or a new part to an existing painted area, verifying the exact original color first helps reduce the risk of ordering the wrong match.

Custom-made color orders should be chosen carefully because the finished product is made to your selected color reference, product type, sheen, and quantity. Before placing the order, confirm that SP 25 Briar is the exact Dunn Edwards reference you want and that you have selected the right MyPerfectColor format for the project.

Custom color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to check the color reference, the surface you plan to paint, and the amount you need before you submit the order. That is especially important when the match will be used on a visible part, fixture, or replacement component.

Coverage depends on the size of the item, the surface texture, how well the substrate hides, the application method, and how many coats are needed. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, while other paint formats often cover about 400 to 600 square feet per gallon, depending on the surface and application.

For a match of SP 25 Briar, it is usually better to estimate based on the actual part or parts you are coating and to allow extra material if the surface is rough, porous, dark, or likely to need more than one coat. If you are coating multiple fixtures or repeated components, plan for the same color and finish across all of them so you do not run short mid-project.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use.

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.

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.
