A match of Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone is a deep, muted brown-gray with a warm, earthy undertone. It reads darker than a mid-tone taupe and stays subdued rather than clean or crisp, so the color has a grounded, mineral-like character. In MyPerfectColor custom paint, the final read can shift with sheen and substrate, which is especially noticeable in a dark color like this.
This shade is suited to spray-painted parts that need a dark, restrained finish without strong chroma. It can be used on metal vents, speaker grilles, switch covers, mailboxes, brackets, shelving supports, railings, hardware, frame pieces, and exterior fixtures that need to match an existing dark painted surface. It can also be used on PVC pipe, baskets, and furniture accents when a low-contrast, earthy neutral is the goal.
Because 407G Hearthstone has a low LRV, surface preparation and film build matter. Light-colored plastic, worn coatings, or uneven substrates may need more than one coat for a uniform result, and gloss differences can make the color appear lighter or deeper than expected. On exterior parts, the subdued tone is less prone to the intense fading issues seen with vivid colors, but the final appearance still depends on prep, coverage, and exposure conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Pratt and Lambert™ 407G Hearthstone *
Can I use MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone on plastics?
Yes, but plastics can vary a lot, so test the paint on the actual plastic before committing to the full project. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone can work well on many plastics, but adhesion depends on the specific material and how it was prepared.
For better bonding, use the MyPerfectColor primer made for this type of application, and make sure the surface is clean and ready before spraying. If the plastic is unfamiliar or highly slick, a test panel is the safest way to confirm that 407G Hearthstone will perform as expected.
What prep should I do before applying MyPerfectColor paint matched to Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone on metal or an existing coating?
Clean the surface first, then scuff it so the new coating can grab properly. If the metal has rust, loose paint, grease, or other contamination, remove those issues before applying MyPerfectColor paint matched to Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone.
If you are painting over an existing coating, the condition of that old coating matters. A sound, well-adhered surface is a better candidate than one that is peeling or failing. Keep in mind that gloss, texture, and surface condition can change how 407G Hearthstone looks after it is applied.
What kinds of projects work well with MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone?
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone is especially useful for small or awkward parts that are hard to coat evenly with a brush. Common uses include trim details, fixtures, railings, vents, pipes, hardware, accessories, and removable parts that need to coordinate with a known paint color.
This format is also practical for items like switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, mailboxes, shutters, and other pieces where a spray application is more efficient than brushing. If the item has edges, openings, or many small surfaces, spray paint often gives you better coverage control than a brush-in-can product.
Will Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone look the same if I order a different finish from MyPerfectColor?
No. The same Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone color reference can look different in matte, satin, or gloss because the finish changes how light reflects off the surface. That means the color match may still be correct, but the finished item can read differently depending on sheen.
If you are trying to coordinate with an existing painted part, consider the finish as part of the match decision, not just the color code. A finish change can make 407G Hearthstone appear deeper, flatter, brighter, or more reflective even when the underlying color formula is the same.
How much MyPerfectColor paint matched to Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone do I need for my project?
Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. As a general planning guide, a typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paint formats usually cover between 400 and 600 square feet, depending on the product and surface.
If you are coating a rough, porous, or dark surface, plan on using more material than you would on a smooth, light, and previously coated surface. For Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone, it is safest to estimate based on the actual item, the number of coats, and whether you are using spray paint or another MyPerfectColor format.

How do I find the same color as the Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone in a different company?
While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Pratt and Lambert 407G Hearthstone, 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.

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.
