Match of Dunn Edwards™ 165 Burnt Crimson *

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 165 Burnt Crimson by Dunn Edwards is a practical choice for small objects such as baskets, frames, shelving parts, decor pieces, and similar accessories where spray application is easier than brushing.

Because 165 Burnt Crimson is a dark color with an LRV of 8.31, coverage can be affected by the color and condition of the item underneath. For the best result, prepare the surface well and expect that rough, porous, or uneven items may need more than one coat.

Primer depends on the substrate, its condition, and the paint type you choose for 165 Burnt Crimson by Dunn Edwards. A primer is not always required, but it never hurts and can improve adhesion.

If the surface is bare, glossy, damaged, or otherwise difficult, primer is often a good idea. Check the prep guidance for the specific MyPerfectColor product you are ordering so you can match the coating and the surface correctly.

Plastics vary a lot, so 165 Burnt Crimson by Dunn Edwards should be tested on the actual plastic part before you commit to the full project. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but adhesion can still change based on the exact material and its surface condition.

Use the MyPerfectColor primer to improve adhesion when you are working on plastic or other difficult, low-energy surfaces. A test piece is the safest way to confirm the prep and finish on the real material.

Confirm 165 Burnt Crimson by Dunn Edwards from a physical swatch or another known color reference, not from a screen view alone. MyPerfectColor matches the original brand color standard, so the color you approve should be the exact target you want to reproduce.

Keep in mind that sheen, surface texture, and the condition of an existing painted item can change how the finish reads after application. If you are matching a real object, verify the reference before placing the order.

Before ordering 165 Burnt Crimson by Dunn Edwards, confirm the brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need. Those choices affect how the finished coating will look and whether it will work for your project.

Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to verify the color target and the order details before checkout. That is especially important if you need repeatability across multiple parts or a future reorder.
