Match of Duron™ 5425A Carbon *

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a match of 5425A Carbon by Duron in custom-matched paint or spray paint, but you should confirm the exact brand color reference, the product format, the sheen, and the quantity before placing the order.

Custom-made color matches are made to order, so they should be chosen carefully. If you need a specific application, make sure the format you select is the one you want before you buy.

Even after you choose 5425A Carbon by Duron as the color target, the finished look can change based on lighting, viewing angle, sheen, texture, substrate, and nearby surfaces.

For the most reliable result, evaluate the match on the actual item and in the lighting where it will be seen. If the part sits next to an existing painted surface, small differences in aging or sheen can be more noticeable.

Before applying a match of 5425A Carbon by Duron, clean the surface, remove dust and oils, degrease if needed, and lightly scuff the surface when appropriate to help the coating adhere.

Mask off areas you do not want painted, and test the product on the actual surface first if possible. That is especially important on plastic, metal, or previously coated items, where adhesion and appearance can vary.

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used and how you want the finished surface to perform. Lower sheen usually hides surface flaws better, while higher sheen is more reflective and often easier to clean.

The sheen also changes how 5425A Carbon by Duron reads on the finished item, so if you are matching an existing part, try to match the sheen as closely as you can. If the item will be handled often or cleaned often, that may also affect which finish is practical.

Use light, even coats and keep the spray moving at a consistent distance from the surface. Overlap passes slightly, and avoid heavy wet coats because they can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a dull-looking buildup.

Let each coat flash off according to the product directions before applying the next coat. A few thin coats usually give better control than one heavy coat, especially on small parts, trim pieces, or hardware matched to 5425A Carbon by Duron.

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.

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 Duron 5425A Carbon, 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.
