Match of Pratt and Lambert™ WH04 Metropolitan *

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to WH04 Metropolitan can be dry to the touch within minutes, but that is not the same as ready for another coat or full handling. A recoat window of about 1 to 2 hours is a practical expectation, and full cure is about 2 weeks.

Plan the project around those separate milestones. Dry time, recoat time, and cure time can all vary with coat thickness, temperature, humidity, and the material you are spraying.

Before ordering a custom match of WH04 Metropolitan, confirm the brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity. Custom-made color matches are made to your selected reference and are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to verify the order details before checkout.

If you need WH04 Metropolitan in a specific format, choose that format first so the match is made in the product you plan to use.

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to WH04 Metropolitan can work on many plastics, but plastic type matters. Some plastics accept coating well, while others need different prep or primer to hold the finish reliably.

For the safest result, test on the actual plastic part first and use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel if you want to improve adhesion. A test on the exact substrate is especially important on unfamiliar or low-energy plastics.

For metal or an existing coating, clean the surface first so dust, grease, wax, or other contamination does not interfere with adhesion. If the surface is smooth and sound, light scuffing usually helps the new coating grip better.

Check for rust, peeling, chalking, or other failing areas before you apply a match of WH04 Metropolitan. The condition of the old coating, along with gloss and texture, can change how the finished color reads even when the color match itself is correct.

Confirm WH04 Metropolitan from a physical swatch or another known existing color reference rather than relying only on a screen image. MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color standard, so the exact reference you approve is the one that should drive the order.

This matters most when the match will be compared to an existing painted part. Verify the target color first, then order the MyPerfectColor paint matched to WH04 Metropolitan in the format you need.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Pratt and Lambert WH04 Metropolitan, 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.
